I chose to attend WVU because this is the campus that I felt most at home in. While attending other college visits, I felt overwhelmed and uncomfortable. When I had my NSO, however, I had an unmistakeable, warm feeling the whole time that made me realize I was meant to go to WVU.
What is your favorite Mountaineer memory?
I do not have a distinct memory that beats all, however, there is a specific Mountaineer feeling that stands above the rest. The energy felt when walking through the Mountainlair at noon is so special- the building is alive with conversation. Even with a brief walk through, the warm atmosphere always makes for a better day, as the energy feels like a true community. That sense of connection is what makes me feel like a Mountaineer most.
Why did you want to become a PSA?
I wanted to become a PSA because this opportunity will be give me hands on experience to become a strong leader and to develop a deeper understanding of WVU's mission. This will give me the chance to be better equipped to promote these values within my other leadership roles at WVU.
