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

that there is more to college than just studying and I should allow myself to find opportunities. I used to stay in my room a lot either doing homework or watching Netflix. I wish I had known sooner that I would find my place on campus.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

STRiVE, which is a leadership retreat that people can go to during winter break. It was so great to meet new people who have different views about life than me. I was able to make new friends and allow myself to be vulnerable in able to learn more about myself. It was one of the best experiences of my life.
