What makes UMBC home?
The people for sure. I've met so many wonderful people that really embody what it means to be a Retriever!
How has UMBC helped you grow?
In many of my classes, my professors have helped me find confidence to get outside my comfort zone!
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.
My advice to prospective students...
is ask about clubs in your fields of interest! You can make so many friends while also pursuing your passions.
