I chose UMBC because...

UMBC highlights having a very close community. I really felt like the institution itself cares about their students and tries to help them as much as they can. I also love that my fellow students are just as or more academically focused as I am and I feed of off other people's energy to encourage myself.

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

Oca Mocha and/or The Hub

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

Playing manhunt on academic row with my friends in the middle of the night or Practicing for cultural events on main Street

Favorite Class or Professor and Why

I love IHU classes, they are so helpful and a good way to unwind and still retain information about the campus. My IHU class actually went on a scavenger hunt which is how I found some of my favorite hangout places on campus and student resources that I would've been too scared to look for myself.

I'm passionate about...

Painting Law Politics
