Why did you choose Dickinson College: I wanted to be far away from home so that I can assert my independence and be bi-coastal experiencing two distinct weathers (snow on the east coast and sun on the west). I was given the opportunity to attend Dickinson College as a Posse Scholar with a full-tuition scholarship and I accepted it because of the liberal arts approach to education that the school has and because it is on the east coast.

Interesting fact about yourself: Met the Australian celebrity, Josh Thomas, and now, he follows me on instagram (@ernest.entsie). I didn't know who he was prior to meeting him.

What I want my residents to know about me: 1. I strongly believe a community can be successful through inclusion and communication. A simple, "Hi how are you?" or a smile to someone you don't talk to normally can go a long way to making someone's day better.
2. I assumed the role of an RA because I wanted to be of a resource to you and help your Dickinsonian experience to be a successful and unique one.
3. I am extremely approachable and friendly so never hesitate to reach out to me. My room is always available if you want to talk about anything.
4. I love everything to do with arts. I am a photographer, drawer, painter, and occasionally a port/writer.
5. Love to be exposed to new experiences.
