Favorite WSU experience

My favorite part of my academic experience was being able to develop and apply my skills as a teacher toward the development and growth of my voice. The joy was being able to accomplish these goals alongside with my colleagues.

I loved building relationships within my community at WSU. My community was the most significant factor toward my success as an undergraduate. We all had a great time while conquering life’s obstacles and hurdles together.

One of my favorite memories at WSU was traveling with the concert choir and Madrigal Chamber Singers to South Korea! It was phenomenal. We immersed ourselves in a new culture and gained new perspective and appreciation of the arts. I will never forget it.

Future plans

I will pursue a master’s degree in music performance and literature at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
