What is your favorite part of UW?
I love how many opportunities there are in research, volunteering, and clubs, and how easy it is to get involved in campus life. I also loved my dorm experience in my first year – that’s where I met my closest friends. 


How did you get involved with ASUW?
I was a senator for Maple Hall in my freshman year and then joined both the Finance and Budget Committee and the Engineering Student Council as a senate liaison.

I am the parliamentarian for Senate, which means I train senators and advise the Senate Speaker on Senate rules and procedures. I help senators write legislation and act as the Senate liaison to the ASUW Board of Directors.

I hope to pursue a graduate degree in Electrical Engineering and work on innovation in the field of medical technology.
