Did you have a favorite class or professor? 

My favorite class in my major was "Hate Crimes" with Professor Magnelli and my favorite professor is Professor D'Anna.

What activities were you involved in during your time at Mason that impacted you?  

I was involved in the Latin Student Association (LSA) during my time at Mason. It was incredible to be part of the Latin community and witness the support we've had amongst each other throughout the years. Everyone in the community would share job opportunities, school events, or help each other with other fundraisers which has created a positive environment and support system for myself and others in LSA.   

What is your most memorable moment at Mason? 

As an enthusiastic soccer fanatic, my most memorable moment at Mason was watching my first-ever women's soccer team match in 2020 

 What is your next step? What are your future plans?  

I began the bachelors/accelerated master's program for criminal justice in fall of 2022 and I hope to continue with the program and finish my masters degree in 2024.  

As you are reflecting on your time at Mason, what is one piece of advice you would give a student who is just starting off on their Mason journey? 

One piece of advice I would give to a student is to always work hard since hard work pays off in the end!
