Describe your college experience

I immediately loved the city and the school but I was dealing with some personal struggles during my freshman year which was a bit challenging but I love it now.

Tip for future students

Don't be afraid to be alone! You might not immediately find your best friends as soon as you enter college, I didn't till my junior year, but don't be discouraged. Be yourself and you will attract the right people into your life, there is nothing wrong with not having a big friend group your freshmen year.

Favorite class

My favorite class was ESPM 165 which was about international rural development policies. I learned so, so much during that class and I really understood the complicated relationships around energy and development.

Career goals

I plan on moving to New York, hopefully for graduate school, and plan on going into construction management with a focus on transportation.

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal night is having all my girlies over and watching movies​/​crafting or going out!

High school or secondary school

I went to Taft Charter High School in Woodland Hills CA.
