Current employment:

I currently work in the ECON 202 tutoring lab! I have made a lot of great friends there and teaching people econ has been a super great way to reinforce simple concepts!

Family ties to Texas A&M:

None! I am a first generation Aggie!

I chose to attend Texas A&M because…

I loved the culture of campus, how everyone you meet seems genuine and kind, and the opportunity of doing the 3+2 program I am currently apart of. I always knew that I wanted a higher degree and Texas A&M has made it possible for me to streamline it.

My favorite things to do on campus are…

Walk around during a beautiful day and listen to a podcast, book, or some music.

When I have free time, I like…

To work out, hang out with my friends, read, crochet, and learn about coffee!

The craziest thing I’ve done is…

Stay in hostels for 2 weeks straight on my backpacking trip! I'd recommend a real hotel thrown in there every once in a while.

My favorite place to study is…

Polite Coffee Roasters in Bryan! Best coffee and vibes in town.

My favorite ECON professor is…

I really haven't had a negative experience, but I really enjoyed Mirco Theory with Dr. Guo and I have always had great experiences in Dr. Strickland's classes.

My favorite part of being an Economics student is…

Seeing all of the different ways that economics can be applied to everyday life.

If I could share an afternoon with anyone, I would love to share it with…

Sarah J. Mass or Hanya Yanagihara. Very different picks, but two of my favorite authors.

If I knew I could not fail, I would…

Run a marathon!

If money was not a consideration, I would love to…

Take a year to travel and go everywhere and anywhere!

What is your passion and how are you committed to pursuing it?

I love traveling and learning different cultures and experiences. I want to make sure I have the broadest lens when it comes to a "world view" as possible. I am committed to pursuing this by making sure I am informed about world happenings and always saying yes to exploring new places!

After graduation, I plan to…

Travel first! Still deciding what the plan is whether it be a national park road trip or an abroad adventure. Then I will start work in August at American Airline's headquarters in Dallas, TX working in the Revenue Management Department. While I am going to miss Texas A&M, I am excited to see where these next few years take me!

The one Texas A&M experience I will always remember is…

My first ever football game. While I am not the biggest sports fan, I am usually down for Aggie football. I remember trudging all the way up to the nosebleeds of Kyle (where most freshmen are) and thinking I was such a grown up. It was the beginning of such a great college career!
