What is your motivation to succeed?

Myself. I would like to see how far I could go in terms of what I can do. I know I can improve in certain areas and that is more than enough motivation to keep me going.

Tell us something most people don’t know about you.

I eat seafood even though I’m allergic…

It helps me meet my macros! And it’s so tasty lol.

What are your long-term goals?

Professionally- making sure that I am in my ideal career choice

Personally- making sure I never fail to express my love to everyone.

What does EOP/MAP mean to you?

Foundation. If something either hits the fan or works out for me I make to make my way to this office where I do not feel judged. I feel like I could tell Glory anything (which I’ve told her ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING) and she gives me the reassurance and guidance that I need.

What’s your most invaluable experience at Purchase?

My connections on campus, but most importantly, the connections that feel like home.
