I'm a junior double-majoring in Economics and Psychology with a minor in Music Performance (Piano). I'm a part of the club soccer team, the consulting club, and a bible study on campus. I'm also very involved in the music scene. I didn't know much about Bowdoin when I applied, but I'm so grateful I ended up here! I'd love to share my experience to see if Bowdoin might be the right fit.

Describe your college experience

I came into Bowdoin not knowing very much, other than that it was a small school with a good reputation. Transitioning to college was a bit difficult, but I feel very settled now. I've found the people here to be amazing, and I feel as though I'm constantly being pushed to excel in my academics, music, and career.

Tip for future students

- Don't try too hard to meet everyone in the first few weeks - Value your time, don't waste it - Try things out in your first year

Favorite class

My first year writing seminar was Personal Ethics, which I found really interesting. The content was engaging, the grading was tough, and I thought the professor was incredible at helping me improve my writing.

Career goals

I'm honestly not sure -- right now I'm considering startups or consulting

Ideal way to spend a free night

Hanging out with friends, and then leaving the pre-game early to play poker or a board game.

High school or secondary school

Princeton High School

Favorite spot on campus

Studzinski Recital Hall. It has everything you need -- couches, background music, practice rooms, bathrooms, and the convenience store is very close
