Of all the jobs you could have on campus, what made you want to be a CAST Peer Mentor?

This was a really fun experience to be a part of, and it helped with my transition to college. I want to be able to provide this same experience to others because the friends you meet will be the first friends that you have on campus and it makes your first few days a little less scary.

 

If you could learn any skill or craft instantly, what would it be?

I think being able to play the piano would be so much fun.

 

What’s one thing on your bucket list you know you’ll cross off some day?

Even though I am deathly afraid of heights, I want to go sky diving at least once.

 

What's your favorite way to de-stress or relax during busy times?

Recently really like to play HayDay after I get done with my homework.

 

If your life had a soundtrack, what is your theme song?

"Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield

 

You just won an all-expenses paid vacation. Where would you go?

Japan

 

What’s your favorite place on campus—and why?

 I love to sit in the library because I like to people watch while I do my homework.

 

What's your go-to comfort food or guilty pleasure snack?

Popcorn and chocolate

 

What's one thing you wish you had known before starting college?

I wish I was told about all of the walking, for some reason I forgot about that detail!
