I chose Emory because...

its high ranking, beautiful campus, variety of master programs for if I decide to get my masters at Emory, and I love being in Atlanta.

What has been the highlight of nursing school so far?

All the amazing friends I have made. I have also really enjoyed being able to hands-on experience in the hospital fairly early on in nursing school.

My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...

to try all the different restaurants and bars. I also love exploring Atlanta in general, such as going to the botanical garden, going to Braves games (pre-covid), and walking on the beltline.

Before nursing school, I was...

receiving a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Mercer University in Macon, GA.
