I wanted to become an RA to teach residents that college is something to be taken seriously. I also want to model what it is like to be a successful non-traditional student. I’m thankful to have a lot of other transfer students I can connect with.
What is the most valuable part of being an RA?
The most valuable part of being an RA is being able to mentor students. The access that we have and our responsibility with it is incredible. RAs really are creating a community, everything we do is intentional, and I love that.
What is your favorite program you held for your residents?
My favorite program was our MTO Acai Bowl program that I put on with the help of RA Quinn and RA Larry. We made a really great team, and a lot of people came out!
What do you hope your residents get out of you being their RA?
I hope that my residents learn that there is a balance to college and that they find their own balance. I am really honest with my residents, and I want them to have a realistic vision of the world before they graduate. Hopefully, I can impart that foresight onto them.
Do you have any valuable tips or tricks that you have learned from your time here at MU to pass on to other students?

What is your favorite part of living in the residence halls?

Why did you choose to come to Millersville?
