Favorite Class or Professor and Why

It's a tie between Social Media Networking with Dr. Snyder and Costume Design with Prof. Abele. Both professors are extremely passionate about their subject matter and assign fun, yet enriching projects.

During my first semester, I wish I would have known...

that it's okay to struggle a bit in classes; sometimes your best effort is a B instead of an A and that's okay!

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

Playing Candace in a student-written and produced Phineas and Ferb parody musical.

My UMBC hack is...

if you want to eat in the University Center for an early lunch, a great time to get in line is between 11:15-11:30, so you skip the main lunch rush!

I'm passionate about...

Theatre/Acting Singing Spending time with my friends and family Designing and sewing costumes Graphic design is my passion

I'm involved with...
