On a random day, you're most likely to find me….

Sitting at the gazebo behind Seney reading a book or having a study session with friends at Local Coffee House in Covington Square!

My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...

To go to discover different restaurants and cuisines with my friends. We love to go on mini-road trips, jam to music while on the way, and then finish dinner with some boba!

What has been your most impactful class?

My most impactful class has been my sociolinguistics class, where we focused on the overlap between language and race. This class pushed me out of my comfort zone by encouraging me to ask more questions about topics I was unaware of in the past. It also allowed me to dive deeper into why language and its origins are so powerful and relevant in our society.

What is your favorite Emory tradition?

My favorite Emory tradition is the Midnight Pancakes event during finals week. After studying for hours, there's nothing like delicious warm breakfast food and friends to get you through the challenging week ahead!
