Outside of school, I am a participant of National Novel Writing Month and Poetry Ourselves.

What made you choose Ball State?

I chose Ball State University to further my education because of fantastic education and art programs, the affordable tuition costs, and the convenient location of campus.

I am most excited about my art classes and getting to move into the dorms.

Do you have any hobbies? If so, what?

My hobbies include painting, writing, reading, playing video games, and watching movies.
