Describe your college experience

The transition between high school and college was difficult, I was home sick a lot and felt out of place. But once I was able to adjust, I found out why so many people love college; it is something we The transition from high school to college was challenging. I often felt homesick and out of place. However, once I adjusted, I understood why so many people love college. It's a unique experience we only have once, and I am so excited to create many more memories on a campus that I worked so hard to reach.

Tip for future students

It is okay for there to be an adjustment period between high school and college, no matter how much we prepare, it is a big life change. I wish I wasn't so shocked by it when I came to campus and understood that everyone around me was going through the same thing.

Favorite class

HUM2020 My humanities class I took in the fall of 2024 has been my favorite class, it is not something I had been exposed to previously and I really enjoyed the way it made me think about things differently.

Career goals

I want to work in sports doing media and marketing, my dream job would be to work in Formula One for a team.

Ideal way to spend a free night

I am an in-bed-by-ten kind of person, so my ideal night is getting dinner with my friends and then coming back to watch a movie we have all seen a hundred times and just laugh and hangout.
