After graduation I want to …

be successful! Being successful to me isn't having loads of money or a nice car, but to be happy with the career I've chosen and loving going to work! I want to love my job, and have it not feel like a chore (:

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

My favorite local restaurant is Gino's! On Tuesdays they give a student discount if you show your OneCard, so I go more often than I'd like to admit.

What is your favorite TU tradition or event on campus?

I'll give one of each! My favorite TU tradition is to rub Doc the Tiger's ears before each semester! There are 3 or 4 Doc the Tiger statues around campus, and the legend goes that if you rub Doc's ears before classes begin, he'll give you good luck! My favorite events on campus are without a doubt the football games! I might be bias as I was in the Towson University Marching Band for 3 years, but the energy and atmosphere at the games are hard to compare to anything else. They are so much fun, and being surrounded by the student body is amazing.

What is a fun fact about yourself?

A fun fact about me is that when I was 6 years old, I had a giraffe steal a peanut butter and jelly sandwich from me through a car window! I was scared of giraffes after that for a few years! Side note: giraffe tongues are prickly!!
