What are you involved it at UVA?

One of the best parts about college is being able to invest your free time in things you’re truly passionate about; for me, that passion is politics.  University Democrats and Hillary for America have been amazing platforms for meeting people who share that interest.  I am also a member of Alpha Phi sorority and Sustained Dialogue.  

 

What’s your go-to Starbucks order?

Depending on what I’m in the mood for, I’ll usually go for either an Iced Chai Latte or a Jade Citrus Mint hot tea. It’s great to have with you in a freezing lecture hall!

 

What’s your favorite restaurant in Charlottesville?

Although it’s hard to go wrong on the Corner, Fig (and it’s addictive fried Oreos) is definitely one of the top restaurants on my list.  

 

What’s your current favorite song?

“In the Name of Love” by Martin Garrix and Bebe Rexha is my current Spotify go-to. “With or Without You” by U2 is my current favorite throwback jam, though!

 

What’s your favorite place on Grounds?

I love the Music Library.  I feel like it’s very underrated.  Its natural sunlight and comfy chairs make it the perfect place to study or just relax!
