I love the feeling of inspiration and community when people come together to support each other and participate in events as a whole. I also am interested in learning about Ursinus’s history & traditions to help keep them alive and to understand what the Ursinus community stands for.

Favorite Ursinus memory: My favorite Ursinus memory is going to Chenoa Manor with my sorority sisters. I loved helping the animals, doing hands-on work, and having fun. Lots of different animals came up to me when I was working in their pasture, which was so cool! I can’t wait to go back!
