Political science and philosophy double major. International affairs and Periclean Honors Forum double minor. Student Government Association vice president for financial affairs.  Head Admissions ambassador.

During my college search, I applied to many schools.  From the second I arrived at ϳԹ, I felt like I was home. The campus was beautiful, the people were friendly, and there was a sense of excitement and community in the air. I knew that ϳԹ was the place for me.

Here, I have immersed myself in several disciplines and learned more than I imagined possible. I have challenged myself academically, been selected for the Periclean Honors Forum, and maintained a perfect GPA.

Beyond the classroom, I am the Student Government  Association (SGA) vice president for financial affairs and chair of the Budget and Finance Committee. I love this role because I interact with and get to know club leaders. I also serve on the Institutional Policy Planning Committee, which allows me to advocate for my peers. I am often confronted with situations that lack clear answers and use creativity to pursue solutions.

In addition to SGA, I am a head admissions ambassador.  As a natural extrovert and someone who likes to help people, I truly enjoy connecting with prospective students and families and sharing why I love this place so much.

After ϳԹ, I hope to attend law school and ultimately work in government or law.

The cost to attend college caused me plenty of stress,  but I didn’t want to settle on a school just because it was the only one I could afford. When I was notified of my  scholarship, I felt doors opening for me. A dream became a possibility. I will always be grateful for your support!
