What’s your favorite location on campus that’s not on our tour? The gazebo!
Best D-hall creation or food item? This is genuinely so hard to pick. I could tell you each of my favorite foods at each dining location. My favorite from D-hall is the poke bowl station.
Where on campus do you feel most energized? When I was a student, my friends and I would go into a Booker Hall of Music practice room, and we would have jam sessions playing our instruments!
Favorite music genre? Indie, Folk, Alternative
If you could go back to college and major in a different subject, what would you pick? I majored in Cognitive Science, and I still think it is the best major. If anything, I would also have majored in Computer Science because the overlap of AI and psychology is my favorite topic.
What advice would you give to students going through the college search process? First, I would want to say that I am empathetic to how stressed you are. I remember the college process as one of the most stressful times of my life thus far. But also, I can attest from my experience that the dust will settle. You will find your place and your people, and what you will remember is the friends and experiences you had.
