My favorite activity outside of class is...

dance! Whether it be practice for Kaos, using an empty space in Gosman athletic center or meeting a friend in Boston to go to an adult class dance is my way to let go. It is a great way to express my feelings, stay healthy and get to know new people through going to dance classes and performances both at Brandeis and in the Boston area.

I chose Brandeis because...

it is truly a safe space for students to challenge themselves and make memories. During my three years as part of the 24 hour musical I have found the pieces to this statement. My first year I was an actor, scared to audition for my peers until they started cheering me on as I did my song like a back up dancer for Ariana Grande. My second year I was the Vice President faced with the challenge of thinking up solutions when we couldn't do a dress rehearsal in the theater due to an emergency with one of our pieces of equipment. Then this year as the President I learned the beauty in taking all of those pieces and creating memories with my new friends and old ones through doing a kick line in the SCC atrium at 12:30am. Brandeis is truly a place to grow as a student and more importantly, as a person.

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

Fenway! Ever since my friend Alyssa took me to my first Red Sox game I have been obsessed with going to games. Even when we lose it is such a fun experience and I have even gotten better at understanding what is actually going on!

My favorite Brandeis tradition is...

the 24 HOUR MUSICAL! Whether you are acting, doing tech, helping build the set or just being an audience member it is always a great experience to be a part of.
