My UMBC hack is...

To find your secret study spots early on in the semester! It is much easier than scavenging for a spot in the Library during finals week!

My advice to prospective students...

Stay true to yourself, and find the school that fits YOU - not the one you have to fit into.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

Engaging in a faculty-led study abroad course (PUB 300: Global Community Engagement and Social Change) in South Africa in Summer 2025!

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

My favorite local shop is Atwater's in Catonsville - they have amazing drinks, incredible food, and the vibe is perfect for an afternoon study session!

I'm passionate about...

Singing Performing Arts Pickleball Volleyball NCAA Men's Diving Public Speaking Theatre/Acting

I'm involved with...
