My first improv show! I love being a part of the improv troupe on campus. It's been super cool getting involved with planning and admin for the club as well, and I've learned a lot about leadership and what it takes for a student organization to flourish!
UMBC has made me a much more well-rounded student than I ever expected! I'm a Graphic Design major, and the interdisciplinary class options have allowed me to explore subjects outside of my major that aren't necessarily offered at exclusively arts schools.
I love Taste Tea, the boba place near campus! It's walking distance, but it's also accessible by the UMBC bus. It's honestly my favorite boba place ever.
...of the great community, the beautiful campus, and the excellent arts education offered here. It's close to home but it's given me a place to learn how to live independently and build a strong foundation for a career.
