What was your favorite experience as an undergrad? I entered college thinking I wanted to have a career building roller coasters as a mechanical engineer. However, the more I got involved in extracurriculars, like being an orientation leader and resident advisor, I fell in love with education.

College was a very transformational experience for me and I hope that you feel this way too!

Fun fact? I have two cats named two black cats: Oliver and Penny.
