Tell us a piece of wisdom you’ve learned over the past four years.
It is so important to respect and value the different qualities and characteristics that make each of us unique. Rather than let those differences separate us, we should choose to come together and learn from one another. Engaging with the people around you, and developing relationships with those people, is the true key to success..
Who has had the greatest impact on you throughout your college career and how so?
My college roommate had the greatest impact on me during college because she challenged me to ask questions and step beyond what is comfortable.
What’s your favorite Stamps Scholar memory?
My favorite Stamps Scholar memory is caving with my fellow scholars at SSNC15!
What comes next?
Up next is graduate school to obtain my Master of Occupational Therapy degree. I have been accepted to the program at the University of Southern California.
Please share your favorite inspirational quote.
“Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he’s *just* a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That’s like saying, ‘He can’t climb that mountain, he’s just a man’, or ‘That’s not a diamond, it’s just a rock.’ Just.” – J.M. Barrie
