Favorite Spot on Campus

One of my favorite spots on campus is the Parking Garage, because my friends and I enjoy driving up there to chill in the car and overlook the campus.

Fun Fact

I volunteered/worked as the Teacher's Assistant throughout high school.

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

My favorite local shop is Taste Tea in Arbutus, because its the perfect spot to grab a simple "After-Classes treat", "Mid-Week Treat" or "Pick-Me-Up Treat"!

Favorite Class or Professor and Why

One of my favorite classes has been ART 425: Writing for Artists, Curators, and Critics with Professor Mark Durant. It was a fantastic class because I was able to learn new writing techniques, and have deeper discussions on how to make my writing more impactful. Professor Durant had a wealth of knowledge to share which was extremely helpful in my literary growth.
