About Me

I am so so happy to have been a member and captain of the Varsity Volleyball team. All of my teammates have inspired me so much in so many different ways throughout my time at Oberlin, I literally would not be the person I am today if I had not met them. I also was a member of Pyle and Brown Bag Co-ops, which have both taught me so much about social responsibility in what I eat and consume and how to take care of myself and others around me. Oberlin has opened my mind in a multitude of ways, and I am so grateful to all the people who have supported me along the way!

Study Abroad

Campus Jobs

Favorite Place

Asia House Library! I can get a lot of work done while smelling whats cooking downstairs in Pyle :)

Favorite Class

Geology 120! Zeb was an amazing professor, and as someone who has not always had positive experiences in science classes, I highly enjoyed his teaching style and all the stuff I learned about the Earth and its processes!

Athletics

Volleyball

Clubs & Organizations

Plum Creek Review

Memorable Oberlin Moment

One time, the volleyball team was driving back from some away game and one of our vans broke down. I was sleeping in the working van through the whole ordeal and didnt realize the whole team had crammed into our van until I woke up and saw some of my teammates sitting on the floor!
