Any words of advice for incoming students?
Try to keep a familiar part of your routine from home in your new life at school. It'll help ease your transition.

What did you study and why?
I majored in Media and Communications because my favorite class in high school was a pop culture class and I always valued communication skills. I minored in both Hispanic studies and Drama. Theater has been one of my favorite hobbies since middle school!

What's your favorite Catholic ´ºÉ«Ö±²¥ tradition?
CapitalFest! The reveal of the visiting artist is so exciting. Who doesn't love a free concert?

What made you choose your school?
I knew I loved the campus after my tour but after my recruiting trip with the swim team, I fell in love with the community.
