Why did you choose to study or intern abroad?
I chose to study abroad because of the unique, once-in-a-lifetime experiences that studying in a new country provides. I can't wait to be fully immersed in the Italian culture, not only learning from the classroom but also from the people I meet and the places I go!

What IS ONE NEW EXPERIENCE YOU'RE HOPING TO HAVE WHILE ABROAD?
I hope to travel to multiple cities across Europe as this is my first time visiting the continent. Additionally, I am very excited to try new food and drinks while I am abroad, especially in Italy as Italian cooking has always been something I've grown up around.

What CLASS ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO TAKING while ABROAD?
I am very excited for my International Finance class and my Italian class. I believe that an Italian language course will be helpful while living in Italy and understanding the culture. Additionally, learning about finance in different countries allows me to gain new perspectives.

WHAT IS SOMETHING you're passionate and excited about? 
I am passionate about art in all forms! More specifically, I love listening to music and I love to paint, two mediums that I find to be very therapeutic and enjoyable. I'm so excited to visit museums and other historic exhibits while abroad. Other hobbies of mine include yoga and fitness, trying new coffee shops, and photography.
