I’m from Williamsburg, VA but I’ve grown up moving all over the world because of my father's employment. I love music, I’ve played piano for 13 years and have sung and done theatre for 9 years. In the future, I want to go to graduate school, get my PhD and work as a clinical psychologist. I hope to work in war torn areas and refugee camps providing mental service and resources to those affected by the trauma of genocides, war, and displacement.

What’s one item on your bucket list?

Make it to all seven continents.

What is something you wish everyone knew about you major/field of study?

I can’t interpret dreams, stop asking.

When you have 30 minutes of free time, what do you do?

Collapse in a thirty-minute stupor.

Why did you decide to join the Honors Program?

I was really drawn to the interdisciplinary nature of the Honors Program and how well it prepares students for grad school.

What has been your favorite Honors experience?

Going to my unexpected connections class and arguing in class about how a dragon could ACTUALLY breath fire…

What is your next step in Honors?

I have one more unexpected connections class and then I’ll begin my Great Questions.
