Hometown, State: York Harbor, Maine

Two words of advice: Keep smiling!

My personal motto is: "Stick with it, even when times are tough, tomorrow’s a new day."

URI is unique because: It is big but not terrifying! Just the right size and so close to the ocean!

My goal: To learn a lot, work toward my major and meet lots of people along the way.

My favorite food on campus: Frozen yogurt from Freshens.

My best URI moment (so far): Performing with the URI Dance Co. in our recital.

My biggest surprise at URI: Everyone is super friendly and willing to help if you ever need a hand.

My favorite place on campus (and why): The Rhody Market - a great place to study, hang with friends and eat yummy frozen yogurt!

On the weekends I: Hang out with my friends.

My favorite class (and why): I loved “Intro to Mass Media”- Professor Pantalone is awesome and so funny. 

I selected URI because: The campus is beautiful. I grew up by the beach and didn’t want to leave the coast and it’s just far enough away from home.

I am involved in: URI Dance Company, College Republicans, Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society.
