I chose Brandeis because...

It has everything I wanted in a school. Going to college 4,000 miles from home, I needed a place that would feel just like home, and Brandeis was exactly that. I immediately knew that Brandeis would be a home away from home, and that's when I knew it would be the right decision.

My most memorable Brandeis experience?

Singing karaoke at first-year orientation when I didn't know anyone on campus other than my roommate! It forced me out of my comfort zone but everyone joined in singing me, and it ended up being so much fun.

My favorite Brandeis tradition is...

So many, but if I had to pick one, it would be Shabbat dinners. At home our family always makes it a priority to have a Friday night shabbat dinner, so I'm extremely grateful that I always have at least one (sometimes 5+) place to spend Shabbat at!!

My favorite place on campus, in Waltham or in Boston is...

The Charles river esplanade! Especially when it's dark out, because you can see the skyline light up and reflect on the river.

I'm passionate about...

Music Broadway coding Art Sports
