Favorite Class or Professor and Why

UMBC is AFST 100: Intro to the Black Experience, taught by Professor Damon Turner. I took this class my first semester at UMBC and the next semester, I declared a minor in Africana Studies. The class taught me about the different factors that affect Black life and also taught me to identify them in my life. By taking this class, I'd became passionate about fixing the healthcare experience for African Americans.

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

Giant is located about 5 minutes away from Campus making it really accessible to get groceries and stock up on supplies. The UMBC transit provides transportation to Giant (and many local stores in the area) free of cost to UMBC students.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

meeting my suite-mates on move-in day during my freshman year and establishing a close friendship with them. Also reconnecting with an old friend from middle school and rekindling our friendship
