What is your favorite thing about NKU?
My favorite thing about NKU is the Center for Student Inclusiveness. The AASI, LGBTQ+ and LAMP offices have been my family since I arrived here. The office bring a sense of community, culture and love to NKU that you can’t find anywhere else.

Where is your favorite spot on campus? What makes that spot so special?
My favorite spot on campus is the HIC. I really enjoy doing homework in there because of the quiet atmosphere and the study rooms.

What’s the first word that comes to mind when you think about NKU?
Support. The amount of support and care that each office puts into helping students here is unmatched to any other university. NKU ensures that all students get the help that they need to the greatest extent.

What is your favorite way to spend your free time?
I spend my free time meditating. Centering your thoughts, regulating your emotions and giving yourself peace is important to me as a student. Life as a student gets hard, so it's important to practice self-care of your mental and physical.

What is your greatest passion?
My greatest passion is to be able to help people and advocate for others. Building community is important in school to ensure that we are all successful as a student body and love our undergrad experience.
