Describe your college experience
UVA opened me up to a beautiful town with a wonderfully diverse and interesting student body. Chemical Engineering can be a rough major, but now looking back on these four years I’m very fond of all my experiences here.
Tip for future students
Try all the restaurants you can! Charlottesville has a great food scene. Also be sure to check out your class locations in advance so you don’t get lost.
Favorite class
My favorite class here has been engineering and society (STS) for the ways it shows how my major affects people.
Career goals
I hope to become a professor through graduate school.
