Favorite memory at Agnes: I loved presenting at my first big research conference at SEPA, and making beautiful memories with fellow Scotties in New Orleans :)

Favorite psychology course: The PSY 300 course taught me so much about how to prepare for a successful career and graduate school journey. As a first generation student, this was extremely helpful.

What is one thing you learned at Agnes Scott that will stay with you years from now? Leadership can look so many different ways based on our skills and gifts. All aspects of our identity can contribute to our unique forms of leadership for a cause that we care deeply about.

One of my favorite memories has been being part of a class called Joyful Noise. Every class is filled with energy and fun, and it’s something I always look forward to. Getting the chance to perform at the end of the semester is definitely a highlight for me; it makes all the hard work feel so rewarding.

A psychology course that had a big impact on me is PSY 300. It taught me valuable skills like interviewing and networking, and I feel like those are skills I can take with me into any industry.
