How has UMBC helped you grow?

It's definitely broken me out of my introverted shell but in a comfortable way. I've been able to partake in some great opportunities, such as being a Resident Assistant and being in the Cyber Dawgs club. It's enabled me to sharpen my skills in my field and meet a lot of people along the way.

I chose UMBC because...

I wanted to pursue a degree in Computer Science, potentially focusing on Cybersecurity. My stepfather's brother, who works at John's Hopkins Applied Physics Lab, told me how good UMBC's Computer Science program is.

What makes UMBC home?

The feeling of community. There's something for everyone at UMBC, no matter what your hobbies, passions, or interests are.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

being in my apartment, with my roommates, watching the UMBC vs. UVA basketball game, and then seeing the campus erupting into cheer after the win.
