What's your favorite course (so far)?
I have loved History of Higher Education! I've enjoyed the opportunity to combine my undergraduate degree with what I'm currently studying.
What's your favorite spot in Williamsburg?
York River State Park! It's a wonderful blend of coast and forest, and it's the perfect place for a destress hike.
What's a fun fact about you?
I play handbells! I've been a part of choirs since I was five years old, following in my Mom's footsteps.
