WHY DID YOU CHOOSE WVU?

I chose WVU because it immediately felt like home, something I was looking for, especially as an international student. I loved the strong sense of community, the support students get from the amazing faculty, and the opportunities available in research and health sciences. WVU offered the environment where I knew I could grow academically and personally.

What is your favorite Mountaineer memory?

My favorite mountaineer memory is the day I received my researcher badge at Ruby Memorial Hospital. It was the moment I truly felt connected to WVU's medical community and saw myself growing in the career I have always dreamed of. 

Why did you want to become a PSA?
I wanted to become a PSA to represent a university I genuinely love and to help future Mountaineers feel welcomed and supported. WVU has given me so much, and I wanted to give back by serving students and sharing the pride I have in this community.
