Why did you choose to come to UMass Lowell?
UMass Lowell had been a campus that I had visited frequently during my younger years and I always pictured myself here. I was originally going to go to Wentworth Institute of Technology, but at the last minute I decided that UMass Lowell was right for me. I have never and will never regret my decision. I love it here!
Describe your UMass Lowell experience:
My UMass Lowell experience so far has had its ups and downs, but I've come out of it a warrior and I love it here. I wouldn’t' change anything for the world. I've learned, made new friends, experienced new things and I am grateful for everything that has happened.
Why did you decide to become an Orientation Leader?
I decided to pursue being an Orientation Leader because I loved my Orientation and all of the information the OLs had to offer. It made me feel much closer to the environment at UMass Lowell and made me feel comfortable. I want the incoming freshman, as well as transfers, to know that I could be someone that they can stop at any time - on or off campus - to ask any questions or to be their friend. I want to be the one to provide the information to these students as well as give back to this campus.
