is don't be afraid to talk to professors. I have reached out to several different professors whether it was for class or potential career options.

What makes UMBC home?

The people. I have made most of my closest friends on campus.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

OCA Mocha. It's walking distance from the campus, but there are free shuttles that stop in front of it.
