Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Theater 110 (Intro to Acting). I took the class as one of the Arts and Humanities requirements but loved every second. What I liked most was being able to get active in class instead of sitting and getting to interact with other students in every class.

Favorite Spot on Campus

The second floor of the library or Starbucks because I love to have some background noise when I study. You can always find me sitting in one of these spots.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

going to late night with my friends, really every year, but especially freshman year. We went to get food together almost every night and it was a great way to catch up about our days and get some downtime from homework.

I chose UMBC because...

when I stepped on campus for orientation it just felt like home. I also wanted to stay in-state while being far enough from home that it made sense to live on campus.

I'm involved with...
