Describe your college experience

College has been a place for immense growth for me. I've learned so much about my skills, grown in every aspect possible and have improved every day. Being at Cal is such a surreal and amazing experience.

Tip for future students

always remember that "pressure is privilege" - Billie Jean King

Favorite class

Applied Resilience because it is most applicable to teach you how to start your day, and appreciate what is around us. It teaches you to approach everything you do with intention and that's why I am lucky to be course coordinating for it this semester.

Career goals

Work in consulting while running my CPG business - then pursue an MBA

Ideal way to spend a free night

Hiking to the top of the fire trails and cooking dinner with my roommates - or kayaking in the Berkeley marina!
