Why did you choose Dickinson College: I was looking for a small liberal arts college with a diverse student body that would allow me to create deeper and meaningful relationships with people from around the world. Dickinson fosters such engagement inside and outside the campus community with its small class size, diverse student clubs, and service learning opportunities. Further, Dickinson has a strong Educational Studies and Psychology undergraduate program. The college provides various study abroad programs for the two majors including opportunities for summer internship.

Interesting fact about yourself: I took two years off after high school to work at an education company!

What I want my residents to know about me: Flying across the globe to come to Dickinson - away from everything I've ever known - was a difficult transition. However, I enjoy the everyday realization of speaking, eating and socializing in a way other than my own.
