Why opt for Clemson?

I decided on Clemson for the overwhelming sense of family I felt when visiting here. As a freshman, moving 900 miles away from home can be scary, but I knew Clemson would feel like a home away from home. Clemson also has a reputable engineering program specializing in bioengineering and has a ton of resources available for engineering students. I knew I would fit right in here and have loved every year since.

Future Goals? 

I hope to work in medical device development or biomechanical analysis.

CECAS and PEER/WISE involvement?

I worked as a UPIC intern under Brittany Sanders for the PEER/WISE department during my senior year. I am working again with Brittany this year as the Graduate Project Coordinator for GE’s Next Engineers Greenville program.

Highlights from Clemson Experiences?

I studied abroad in Valencia, Spain, during my sophomore year (2019).

Special awards or involvement?

I was Vice President of Recruitment for Pi Beta Phi.
