Where are you now?

Starkville High School, Starkville, MS

Why did you decide to come to MSU and pursue a degree in education?

The second that I stepped foot on the MSU campus, it felt like home and I knew this was where I was supposed to be. For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a teacher. I have fallen in love with the idea of being able to have a postitive impact on teenagers at such an important time in their lives.

What activities are you involved in on campus outside of METP?

FEA, MSAE, and Kappa Delta Pi.

What advice would you give to entering freshmen or students finishing up high school?

Get to know your professors and don't be afraid to ask them for help. They notice the effort and are usually more than willing to do what they can to help you succeed.
