Why did you choose SCAD? Coming fresh out of high school, I had doubts about what exactly I wanted to do for a career. I have so many different interests–from graphic design to animation to storyboarding–and I wasn’t ready to make decision on which one I would concentrate on for the next four years. When I saw that SCAD had so many different majors and minors to offer, I knew that if I came here I could truly find where I wanted to be in the art industry.

Why are you an Ambassador? I always loved to help people and share my knowledge, but back home I never really got the chance to do anything along those lines. First thing I did coming to college was find out how I could be a leader in my school, and when I found out about the Student Ambassador team I jumped at the opportunity immediately. I already loved to tell people how much I love SCAD, and now I get to do it all the time!
