Hometown: Overland Park, KS

What's something you enjoy doing outside of class? I enjoy cooking, baking, and really anything outdoors.

How would your friend describe you in three words? Determined, Loyal, Self-less

Tell us about a time you struggled or failed during college. What did you learn from it? One thing I've struggled with during college is overcommitting myself. At one-point I was forced to reevaluate my responsibilities and prioritize only the things that were most important to me. Hitting this point taught me the importance of trying to balance your schedule. No one is able to work at 100% all the time and that's okay. 

What's a fun or unexpected fact that says a lot about who you are? One of my favorite ways to spend my free time is volunteering, so I devote several hours a year to a couple of organization that mean a lot to me.
