How have you moved forward in your educational journey in college?
I started out not knowing exactly what I would focus on, but I’ve taken classes in several different subjects and couldn't choose between the two majors
What is one way that Burke prepared you, academically or personally, for college?
Burke’s English department is fantastic and I’m a very strong writer because of it, which is crucial as a humanities student.
What should Burke juniors and seniors keep in mind during the process?
No matter where you go, you can find ways to have fun, and will always find good friends. And sign up for several clubs - most of my friends I met at clubs!
