I’m a major travel fanatic and foodie, always on the hunt for the best food spots in Atlanta. Growing up in different places like Omaha, Nebraska, and Jacksonville, Florida, before settling in Johns Creek, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and how they have shaped my perspective. In my free time, you’ll usually find me at a concert, discovering new artists, or enjoying live music with friends, I love all kinds of music, from indie to house and EDM.

At UGA, I’ve spent the last three years focused on my pre-med coursework, but one of my most meaningful experiences has been raising a service animal through the guide dog program. I trained a beautiful poodle named Danny, who just graduated from the program. It’s been one of the most rewarding parts of my college journey, and it’s taught me so much about patience and compassion.

As I head into my last year at UGA, I’m excited to explore campus more and soak up everything Athens has to offer for the next six months. After that, I hope to spend the second half of the year studying abroad in France, finishing my remaining credits, and experiencing a new culture before I take a gap year to work as an EMT and prepare for medical school.
