Describe your college experience
My transition from high school to college was smooth and aided by the wide range of resources USC offers specifically for first year students both academically and personally. I've truly found my "home away from home" at USC meeting my best friends through the housing portal and the organizations I've been apart of. Every year of college has been even better than the last and although I'll be sad to graduate soon, I know my school has prepared me to take on life post-grad!
Tip for future students
If you're debating going to a larger university, I live by the saying "you can always make a big school feel small, but you can't make a small school feel big." Never stop making friends and putting yourself out there during college!
Favorite class
Marketing Strategy and Planning; This class taught me so much about international marketing through a "real-world" global simulation that we worked on all semester. I loved how collaborative this class was and it sparked my passion for working around the world.
Career goals
After graduation, I'll be pursuing an internship in Orlando, Florida through the Disney College Program before applying to get an MBA during Fall 2026.
Ideal way to spend a free night
Depends on the vibe always, but some free nights consist of grabbing dinner/drinks on Main St with my friends, some nights consist of going for walks around Williams-Brice Stadium, and some are just hanging out at home with my roommates watching a movie on the couch!
