Why I chose Wesleyan: By the time I visited Wesleyan in the spring of my senior year in high school, I had visited over 50 colleges. Stepping on campus just felt right. The unity of the campus in its sense of community and the fact that I wanted to attend a small liberal arts school on the East Coast easily made Wesleyan the school that I wanted to commit to.

Academic Interests: Psychology Sociology

Favorite class at Wes: Japanese Culture Through Food Research Methods in Psychopathology Introductory Sociology

Current Classes: Applied Data Analysis Introduction to Cultural Anthropology Adolescence and Emerging Adulthood Refugees & Exiles

Why I want to be a tour guide: I genuinely really love meeting new people and have loved my Wesleyan experience thus far. With these two factors, it felt like a natural progression to become a tour guide and share my experience at Wesleyan with prospective students and parents.
