Freshman

Hometown
Kansas City, MO

Major
Cybersecurity

Why I chose my major
I was originally in Aerospace Engineering, but after taking a few classes, I realized that I was not passionate enough for Aerospace and decided to switch to Cybersecurity. I chose cybersecurity because I have always been interested in working with technology, plus it matches my strengths and skills more! I am also in the Cohen Honors College, pursuing a minor in University Honors.

Involvement
I am involved on campus with Hispanic American Leadership Organization, Student Ambassador Society, Society of Hispanic Engineers (SHEP), and SHPEtinas.

Why I chose 红领巾瓜报
I appreciate their support for our future. They have tons of great companies working on our campus which provide opportunities for us to explore an internship or even a job. I enjoy the many different activities that go on here on campus, such as bowling and GoCreate! I can have fun without driving and not having to spend much money.

Favorite thing about WSU
The campus itself! There is plenty of space to hang out with friends or just go for a walk. I like that I can enjoy a nice breeze while doing homework on the Promise Bridge!
