Why did you choose Dickinson College: I chose Dickinson College because I knew it would provide me with tools that would allow me to critically think for myself. I also wanted to become a more globalized citizen.

Interesting fact about yourself: I went to Milton Hershey School, which is a boarding school for socio-economically disadvantaged children. I enrolled at the age of 9, with my 4 year old brother, and graduated at the age of 18.

What I want my residents to know about me: I want my residents to know that they can come to me for any issue, housing or non-housing related. And that I truly believe that self care is more important than any extra-curricular activity they may participate in.
