Why did you choose UGA? Coming from a small town in Ohio, I knew I was ready for a big change. The first time I toured the UGA, I immediately felt at home. I was inspired by the wide range of opportunities the university offers to get involved, grow, and explore new passions. At the same time, the College of Engineering stood out for its empowering and supportive environment, and I knew it was where I wanted to challenge myself, make an impact, and build my future.
Favorite Memory as a Bulldog Engineer? My favorite memory as a Bulldog Engineer is having the opportunity to work alongside a professor on a research paper focused on nuclear energy. Through this experience, I not only developed valuable research skills that will support my professional career, but I also gained an inspiring mentor who empowered me to grow more confident in my abilities.
