What’s one piece of advice you wish you had when you were an undergraduate student?

One piece of advice I wish I had received is to take full advantage of campus resources and to get involved in clubs and organizations. Everyone moves through life at their own pace, and it’s important to focus on your own journey rather than comparing it to others.

Favorite quote?

“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.” – Malcolm X

Define fun and what does that look like to you?

To me, fun is all about being present and doing the things that make me feel connected and happy. I love spending time outdoors hiking, painting something new, or watching a funny movie. I also enjoy baking, hanging out with my friends and family, and relaxing with my cat, Pumpkin.
