Goals: Figure out what I want to do with my life after I graduate. Perhaps graduate school, perhaps work in industry. I'm still debating.

Why did you choose Delaware? I really enjoy the feel of the campus, both the physical campus itself and the campus atmosphere. They put a lot of time into keeping UD looking nice and everyone here is really enjoyable to be around. Overall it is definitely a great place to attend.

What has been your favorite Honors class so far? My favorite Honors classes so far have been my Honors Calculus classes. The concepts I learned in these classes are concepts I apply every day in my engineering major. These were some of my first Honors classes at UD, and they have definitely had a lasting impression on me.

Who has been your favorite Honors professor and why? One of my favorite Honors professors is Dr. Rakesh. He taught those Honors Calculus classes that I enjoyed so much. He always challenged us to do our best, and was always willing to help us out if we got stuck.

What has been your most rewarding leadership or extra-curricular activity at UD? While I thoroughly enjoy everything I am involved with at UD, I would have to say that my experiences with the Blue Hen Ambassador tour guide program are the most rewarding. I gain valuable public speaking experience, improve my interpersonal skills, and have a fun time showing other families just how great UD really is!
