What is your favorite thing to do on campus?

I love to walk around and sit at the William Knox Holt Memorial Library! I have always enjoyed browsing books, the silence, and the ambiance of libraries. Immersing myself in that environment fills me with joy and tranquility. I could spend hours in a library and not feel the time go by!

What is your favorite place to go to Stockton?

My favorite place is Empresso Coffeehouse. I have been going there since high school, so it's filled with much nostalgia. It's the perfect spot to hang out with friends, study, or simply grab a coffee. My personal favorites are the white chocolate mocha and veggie and cheese panini!

What is your favorite movie and why?

I would say, currently, "Little Women," directed by Greta Gerwig! The film focuses on four sisters navigating their personal ambitions and wants within a time of many societal restrictions. I enjoyed how it focused on the struggles between the characters' ambitions and these expectations. Personally, I truly related to Jo March, as much of what she believed reminded me of myself.
