My Greatest Supporters

Thank you to my parents for supporting me, especially throughout these four years. Thank you to my professors for leading me through undergraduate math and art history. Thanks especially to Professor Conner and Professor Dopfel for your guidance and sage advice. And finally, thank you to Marilyn Sosa, Sonali Lalwani, my boyfriend Nate, and my math friends for making these four years a good time.

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

At the start of COVID, I had some cold symptoms. Since concern for the virus had started to build, Sonali Lalwani and Marilyn Sosa decided to run to the store to buy a thermometer. Unfortunately, they weren't the only ones with the idea. They ended up spending about an hour driving from store to store in order to buy one, only to find that I didn't have a fever. It really was just a cold.

My Next Chapter

In Fall 2021, I will be moving to New York to begin working toward an MA in Statistics at Columbia!

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

My favorite memory would have to be the late-night adventures I would take with my roommate when we both needed to clear our heads. We would always be there for one another, especially in times of high stress. Another memory would have to be all the wildlife that I encountered, especially the buck that had a full set of antlers!

My Next Chapter

After graduation, I will become an employee at Formfactor Inc. Here I will be working as a temp to hire Environmental Health and Safety Specialist. My hope is to get hired full-time or get strong recommendations when looking for other EHS positions.

Favorite Quote

It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.

My Greatest Supporters

My family and friends. My family has always been there for me and always made sure I was supported in any way possible.

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

Going out with roommates after a long day, being able to go and enjoy happy hour somewhere, or staying in and binge-watching a TV series. As a room we were able to connect well, and it made the experience much better.

My Next Chapter

My next chapter will either be getting into securities or getting into real estate, I do know I will be moving to a different state but the goals will stay the same, being able to get my SIE certification, and Series 63, then series 7, all three at the top of my list. Going to keep going and keep working hard.
