Describe your college experience

The transition to college was an easy one for me because of the support I had, even through my major change sophomore year. Ever since then Champaign has treated me very well and I am enjoying every second of being on campus!

Favorite class

I took a class about the design of diesel engines and powertrains and how they work. At the end we dismantled and reassembled an engine. I also really enjoyed my coding and statistics class.

Career goals

After college I plan to move back home and get a job in the test engineering field as well as working on the family farm.

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal night includes getting a couple friends together to go out and watch some football or play cards.
