Meet the kindest girl on campus who I am lucky to have as a roommate and bestie – Taylor Nagel! She will take an interest in your interests and support anything you choose to do. This sassy junior girl is extremely hard working, but also loves to have fun and enjoy a good laugh… especially if it involves Pinkberry. From playing Just Dance to going out in Boston, Taylor is a delight to be around, and everyone should get to know her!
