What was the final factor that made you say "yes" to LU's offer of admission? |
I was completely sold by the conservatory. Lawrence offers such an amazing program and really gives its students the proper training to be successful in any music field. |
What is your favorite part about being a Lawrentian? |
I love that I know such a large percentage of the student body. The student population at Lawrence is really like a small community, and everyone works together to make it a great place to live. |

Which is your favorite resident hall? |
Trever and Sage are my favorite resident halls because the majority of my friends and I lived in those two buildings this past year, and they hold lots of great memories of my first year of college. |
Downer, Lucy’s, or Union Grill, and Downer dining room A, B, or C? |
I like Lucy’s the best because the food, in my opinion, is the best of all three places, and the environment is usually a little less rowdy and a little cozier. Lucy’s is a great place for mealtime conversation. Out of the three Downer rooms, my favorite is A because you’re most likely to run into people you haven’t seen in a while. |
Where is your favorite study spot? |
I study best in my own room, and I really enjoy having a small group of people come over to study with me. That way everyone understands that studying is the main priority, but there is still the comfort of company. |

If you were a crayon or paint swatch, what color would you be? |
If I were a color, I would be sizzling pink (a very bright pink) because I have a very crazy and fun personality, but I’m still nice and sweet like the color pink! |
If you could only eat one type of candy bar for the rest of your life, which would you choose? |
I could easily spend the rest of my life only eating Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Chocolate and peanut butter together is my favorite combination of flavors. |
What is an uncommon hobby you have, and why do you like it? |
I was a competitive figure skater for 13 years before coming to Lawrence. I love skating because it’s extremely hard work, but it’s all worth it to watch yourself improve. |
