Describe your college experience
My transition to college was something I’ll never forget and appreciate more than anything. I didn’t know anyone coming here and it was fairly easy to find people who were similar to me and I have had the same friends since freshmen year and can happily say I have built friends to last me a lifetime.
Tip for future students
I would highly recommend to join a club that interests you since other people that join will be very similar to you and it’s an easy way to stay busy and not feel lonely. If you are more outgoing then definitely try Greek life because there’s lots of relationships and activities there to be made.
Favorite class
My favorite class was macroeconomics with professor Lago because of how interactive he made it and his personality and outlook on life was intriguing and made the lectures more engaging.
Career goals
I hope to acquire an investment or data analyst internship that trails into a full time position at a company in New York City.
Ideal way to spend a free night
My ideal way to spend a free night is with friends out in downtown Miami or just at the fraternity house hanging out casually.
High school or secondary school

Favorite spot on campus
My favorite place on campus is the tables by Smoothie King since it looks onto the beauty of the lake in the center of campus and I would always see some of my friends studying there and stop to talk with them between classes and work.
Meeting point
