What is one thing you wish someone had told you before your first semester at Nebraska?
I wish someone had told me to be okay with failure and to use it as an opportunity for growth.
What is your go-to way to reset during a stressful week?
Every Sunday I spend 30 minutes doing laps at the rec pool. It helps me reset and find my center again.
What is one small habit that helps you stay on track?
I've recently started an assignment tracker and it's been my saving grace for the spring semester. I feel so much more organized.
Where is your favorite place on campus to spend time and why?
I really like to study rooms in LPH. They're super quiet and private and I can really focus on my work when I spend time in there.
What is one thing people are surprised to learn about you?
I think people are genuinely surprised that I’m nice when they talk to me because my resting face looks really mean.
