It would have to be performing with INSA during Welcome Week when I was a 2nd year. It was really fun going out to different events during Welcome Week and being able to perform with my dance family!
Where do you see yourself in five years?
I hope to be working a job I love, traveling, and living life to the fullest!
What is one thing you want people to know about you?
I may come off as really quiet and shy at first but I’m pretty weird once you get to know me (awkward smiley emoji).
