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

that no one is perfect, and I don't need to worry about comparing myself to others.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

on Halloween, my friends and I were out looking at the moon and a helicopter flew over us. We had no idea what it was until the pilot over the intercom said "Happy Halloween!"

How has UMBC helped you grow?

I'm learning to be self-sufficient and advocate for myself and my education.

My advice to prospective students...

is take everything into consideration, go with your gut, and don't be afraid to try new things!

I'm passionate about...
