Why did you choose Purdue? 
Purdue is known to have a pretty good engineering program, and I wanted to be a part of that.

What is a typical day like for you?
I catch the bus to get to campus, go to work, then go to a class or two, nap at any opportunity, go to more classes, head home to make dinner, do homework with a group or solo, and then depending on when I finish that, I’ll either hang out with my roommates or go to bed.

What was your favorite class?
A history class called “America in the 60’s".

What are your career goals?
I would like to be happy. 

What was your favorite course within your major?
A class called “Systems and Signals” where we learned a little bit about how information travels through the air.

Describe your most memorable experience at Purdue?
Making pancakes at midnight with my roommates because we had a craving for them.

What is a unique experience that you have had as a tour guide?
We were able to go on a tour of the house in West Lafayette that was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

Where is your favorite spot on campus?
I love the courtyards between the Windsor Residence Hall buildings.

What would you tell prospective students about Purdue?
I would tell them that Purdue is a great school and has so much to offer.  Our campus is beautiful, especially in the fall.

How has your Purdue experience been so far?
My experience here at Purdue has been great so far.  I feel so at home here.  I’m excited to start my career after college, but I’m sad that I’ll be leaving Purdue.
