Describe your college experience
College has been so much fun for me here at Ole Miss. Transitioning to the campus as a freshman was much easier than I expected, and all of the accommodations the school provides makes it that much easier! Having such a vast campus that is abundantly opportunistic allowed me to really branch out, explore, and understand myself as an individual in this new chapter of my life.
Tip for future students
Do your homework! Go to class as much as you can, regardless of attendance expectations! Talk to the people in your classes- you're bound to make friends. Put yourself above your education- school is important, good grades are important, but your wellbeing is above all of that.
Favorite class
My favorite classes this past year were Writ 102 and Business Law. I had great teachers in both, and these classes really helped me to branch out both artistically and analytically. Even the hard classes can be fun if you have the right mindset and the right teachers.
Career goals
I want to be an Actuary, or something along those lines where I can use numbers without being an accountant (lol). If not, I plan to work with my dad for some time.
Ideal way to spend a free night
My ideal way to spend a free night is with friends. Maybe some people like to go party- and thats great as long as it doesn't put you in any danger! I just prefer to have dinner with a handful of friends, maybe do a bit of homework if were all cramming for the next day, and watch a good show/play some games.
