What makes UMBC home?

UMBC is home because of the kindness that people demonstrate for one another.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

participating in Alternative Spring Break with the Center for Democracy and Civic Life. Service has always been important to me but this program taught me how service could intersect with research and that revelation changed my career trajectory.

Favorite Class or Professor and Why

My favorite class was the Linehan Scholars Program Freshman Seminar taught by Douglas Hamby which exposed the class to different art forms than our own.

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

that it was okay to build relationships and invest time in getting to know other students.

I'm passionate about...
