Why did you choose to come to Penn State? I did SWE stayover and loved the amount of support there was for women engineers here.

 

What is your best Penn State or engineering memory? My first ever football game. The student section was like nothing I had ever experienced before.

 

What advice would you give a first-year engineer? Get involved with a bunch of clubs and activities, it's a great way to meet people, but don't feel like you have to stick with every club you'll just get overwhelmed and add unnecessary stress on to your life.

 

What is a fun fact about yourself? I took a day trip to Africa and rode a camel
