What is a community on campus that you feel proud to be apart of and why?

I feel proud of being part of the International community because it’s such a unique community in which I feel comfortable and safe in. There is so much diversity within the group, and it is such a big part of who I am and how I identify myself.

How have your future plans changed during your time on the hill?

I came in thinking I was going to be a poli-sci major, and now I am planning my career as a nurse. My plans have changed so much to the point that now I cannot be certain of any future plans, which honestly frustrates me since I love planning out my future. My time on the hill has given me the opportunity to not only learn new things but also constantly challenge myself in ways I had never thought of, which is why I keep discovering new parts of myself. This allows me to seek different opportunities and be open minded about the future changes in my plans.
