Describe your college experience
My college experience has been great and I've been thankful for the community I've built on campus. During my freshman year I did my best to find communities on campus that would help me make new friends and also propel my career development. I also explored campus a lot and found fun things to do in all seasons! One of my favorite parts of UIUC has been trying new things and meeting people from different backgrounds. Finding a good group of people made this campus feel like home!
Tip for future students
Something I wish I knew before starting school here is that you should always take time for yourself and your health because college can be super busy and there will always be something you can be doing. Understanding your limits and taking time to rest will make you a better student and more equipped to do better in school!
Favorite class
My favorite class was BADM 320: Introduction to Marketing because my Professor was very engaging and made the class and content fun to learn!
Career goals
I'll be working full-time in New York City as a Consultant as Deloitte! I also hope to start a fashion brand down the line!
Ideal way to spend a free night
Go out to eat at a good restaurant and then have a game night with my friends!
