What’s one piece of advice you wish you had when you were an undergraduate student?
When I was doing my undergrad, it was easy to get pulled into checking off boxes. It is so important to see that your time at school isn’t just to get a piece of paper, but to come out the other side as someone experienced in all areas. That means not only should you have advanced intellectually, but also socially, emotionally, physically and even more! It is just as important to learn in your courses as it is to learn how to manage emotions, make friends, be financially savvy amongst other things.

Define fun and what does that look like to you?
Fun means that you are able to be yourself with people you care about, or doing something that both challenges and fulfills you. For me, that can be just sitting with friends and family, doing a workout, going hiking or rappelling, playing a fun game, watching a football game or fixing an old car.
