Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant
Atwater's in Catonsvillle!!! It's a cute brunch spot!
Fun Fact
I want to study sharks and they're one of my favorite animals, but if I could be any animal then I'd be an otter!
My most memorable UMBC experience was...
the Alumni Awards event which takes place during Homecoming. It's only open to students who have received certain scholarships or are involved with the Student Alumni Association (SAA). One of the recipients was the Surgeon General, Jerome Adams and after the ceremony I got to talk with him, meet his daughter, and take a selfie!
Favorite Spot on Campus
The Commons in the morning is surprisingly quiet and peaceful and it's one of my favorite spots to study before it gets busier during lunch.
