Favorite college activity: Two activities come to mind. I lived in a house with seven other girls during my senior year, and we certainly had our share of fun times for the nine months we lived together. One of the girls still has our "quote tablecloth" on which we would write practically every funny quote someone said--it is fun to read those quotes and be reminded of all the memories from that year. Also, I studied abroad during J-term of my senior year to the Canary Islands. There is nothing like spending time on the beach as research for a paper!

Interesting fact: I love Caribou Coffee and visit the drive-thru several times a week. I go there so much that the people inside recognize my voice when I order! A Northern Lite Caramel Latte is the perfect way to start my day.

Why I love Hamline: I love that Hamline students are so engaged in everything they do. They are committed to their studies, their activities, their jobs and their families, just to name a few, and they give 100% to all of their commitments. Students are dedicated and welcoming, and very proud of and invested in the university!
