Do you have any hobbies?
When I have some free time, I love to read.
Why did you want to become an RA?
I wanted to become an RA to have the opportunity to gain leadership experience. I also wanted to be able to make connections with more students while also helping them reach their personal goals.
What is the most valuable part of being an RA?
The most valuable part of being an RA is being able to gain life-long friendships with the staff and the residents.
What is your favorite program you held for your residents?
My favorite program that I’ve held was “Pie an RA!” This program was held with RAs CJ and Jack, and we raised $255 for the Millersville Relay for Life!
What do you hope your residents get out of you being their RA?
I hope my residents are able to feel like if they’re struggling, or if they feel alone, they always have me supporting them and cheering them on.
Do you have any valuable tips or tricks that you have learned from your time here at MU to pass on to other students?
Do the things that YOU want to do. If you only do what other people want you to do, you won’t be able to become the best version of yourself. Find a new club or organization or department that intrigues you, and do what makes you happy.
What is your favorite part of living in the residence halls?
My favorite part of living in the Residence Halls is all of the programming and community-building that happens to build bonds and relationships.
Why did you choose to come to Millersville?
I chose to come to Millersville for a lot of reasons. However, for me, the most important reason is that, as soon as I stepped on campus, I felt a sense of community and family, and Millersville felt like home.
What is your favorite class you have taken at Millersville?
So far, my favorite class at Millersville is Dr. Himmele’s ERCH 485—Teaching English Language Learners.
Do you have any upcoming events?
I currently have Identi-TEA and Stress Ball Making on October 30th, where students can come drink some hot tea, make stress balls, and work on making goals. Later this semester, RA Connor and I will have some more Relay for Life fundraisers for students to participate in!
