What’s your favorite class at Xavier and why?

I absolutely love my Curriculum Practice classes because I get the opportunity to get in out into the field and work hands on with students with special needs. It’s fun to see everything you’ve learned for the past three years come to life!

What’s something on your bucket list?

I’d love to skydive. I think I’d need someone to push me out of the plane though…

Where are you could you most likely be found on campus?

There’s a little corner on the third floor of the CLC that has the best chairs. It’s next to an outlet and is close enough to the doors so I can see if any of my friends come in- it’s the perfect balance.

What’s your dream job?

I’d like to work at Children’s Hospital as an Intervention Specialist helping to diagnose children with special needs.

Where is your favorite place to go in Cincinnati?

In the fall, my favorite place to spend afternoons is the Ault Park overlook.

If you had to sum yourself up in a quote, what would it be?

“Spend life with who makes you happy, not who you have to impress.”
