What was your most memorable moment or time at F&M?
I will always remember running the Early Edition program last August. Ten first-years interested in journalism volunteered to arrive at F&M early to learn about The College Reporter, our student newspaper. Having attended the program as a first-year, leading the group this past semester was very fulfilling.
What did you enjoy most about the College?
F&M is special because the other students pushed me to be my best. The culture here demands engagement, whether it's doing extra reading for class or leading an on-campus organization.
What are your plans for after graduation?
I am moving to Washington, D.C., where I will work in marketing for a health care consultant.
