What drew you to Hofstra University?
The scholarship opportunities was really what got me to Hofstra.
 
What are you involved with at Hofstra?
Danceworks, Center for Civic Engagement, and student aiding in the Sociology department.
 
How did you get involved with Danceworks?
One of the choreographers saw me dancing at the bar freshman year and asked me to try out for his dance. 
 
 
Where would you like to see yourself after graduation?
On a full bright scholarship in South America for a year and then law school to become an environmental lawyer. Climate change isn’t going to reverse itself. 
 
Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Working for the UN helping our new leaders develop sustainable policies. Hopefully by then all of them will accept climate change as truth.
