WHY DID YOU CHOOSE WVU?

I chose WVU because of its community and countless opportunities. As a first-generation college student, it was important to me to find a place that could support me through the college transition. The first time I stepped foot on campus I was welcomed and felt right at home. Thats when I knew that WVU would give me the chance to improve both academically and personally. Soon after I got accepted into the Honors College and made my decision to commit to WVU!

What is your favorite Mountaineer memory?

My favorite Mountaineer memory was welcome week. I loved participating in all the activities/events that WVU held while meeting new people that I am still friends with today. My friends and I still talk about our first adventures together and none of these memories or laughs would have been possible without welcome week. 

Why did you want to become a PSA?

I wanted to become a PSA to obtain leadership experience and new strengths/skills. In the future I aim to be a lawyer, and I think this position will be very beneficial for this career choice. The PSA program offers great opportunities that will allow me to advocate for WVU and its values. I hope to have a positive impact on the WVU community because it has done so much for me.
