Describe your college experience
I really appreciated the size of UMD's campus--there are so many opportunities and so many interesting people to meet!
Tip for future students
I definitely wish I had known that it's not so easy to get off campus (e.g. to DC), and there isn't much to do off-campus nearby anyway.
Favorite class
Syntax! The class was so engaging and my professor really cared about our learning.
Career goals
I plan on pursuing a career in lexicography (dictionary-making).
Ideal way to spend a free night
I love hosting movie nights in my apartment!
High school or secondary school
I went to public school in Newton, MA.
Meeting point
Frederick Douglass Square on the University of Maryland campus
