What is your favorite thing about living in the Charlotte area?
My favorite thing about living in Charlotte is all the fun places to explore near campus and in the city. Optimist Hall is a fun place to eat where you can see the view of the city.
What are your career goals for the future?

Why did you choose to attend UNC Charlotte?
I chose to attend UNC Charlotte because of the proximity of the city and the partnerships that the Belk College of Business has with nearby companies. This leads to amazing networking and internship opportunities. UNC Charlotte also has an impressive array of professors as well as several organizations to join on campus.
What has been your favorite honors course so far and why?
My favorite honors course so far has been BUSN 1101: Introduction to Business & Professional Development because the class gave me exposure to all the different fields of business. I really enjoyed the small class size and being with all the other freshmen in the program. The class was discussion based and everyone got to know each other well.
How would you describe the community of the Business Honors Program?
The community of the Business Honors Program is very welcoming and supportive. Everyone cares about each other and wants you to succeed. The students in my Business Honors Program class are all very close to each other and we hang out with each other often. The program has eased my transition to college and has helped me to succeed.
