Favorite spot on campus:

This is a hard one, but my favorite spot on campus is probably the Student Activity Center. It always has something fun to do, and it was my first introduction to CMU when I was growing up - I would attend swimming lessons and summer/sports camps there often. This was one of the first places where my love for CMU was born.

Favorite CMU Memory:

Studying abroad! My time in Spain allowed me to fully immerse myself in the language and culture, an experience that broadened my perspective and contributed significantly to my personal growth. It also strengthened my Spanish language skills, which continue to benefit me both personally and professionally. 10/10 recommend. 

What advice would you give to current or prospective CMU students? 

Fully embrace the experience! Join clubs & organizations, try out for that sports team, get out of your comfort zone. This is where memories are made, and how people become transformed by their college experience.
