Abbi Hoover, a Michigan native, moved to North Carolina for UNCW, the great weather, and of course, the beach. After living here for almost two years, she has adapted to her new environment and really loves the people she has met in Wilmington. She enjoys trying news things, and she never backs away from a challenge. Abbi tries to live her life by remembering this quote, “The challenge is in the chase, the joy is in the journey.” These words help Abbi keep her goals in sight, and remind her to always live life to its fullest.
