Describe your college experience
I have had the best experience coming to Alabama! Coming from out of state was a big change, but the people and the environment have helped make this transition as smooth as possible.
Tip for future students
Even though this campus is massive, it will feel smaller and more familiar with everyone you meet. Make a connection with anyone and everyone because you never know who you will have classes with or potential colleagues in the future.
Favorite class
PY 321 Professional Issues: This class has been my most helpful class at UA. It focuses on getting students ready for careers after graduation by teaching them how to apply for grad school, make a resume/cover letter, and get the most out of their degrees at UA.
Career goals
After college I want to be a Sports Psychologist for a professional sport team, with my end goal being a formula 1 team or a dance company.
Ideal way to spend a free night
My ideal way to spend a free night is with my friends. Whether it's having a movie night or getting dinner, I always like to hang out with my friends and explore new hobbies.
