  • Senior, Journalism, Advertising, and Media Studies

I am honored to be recognized by Phi Beta Kappa. Graduating during a pandemic is not what I had in mind when I started at UWM, but it hasn't diminished my accomplishments or the memories I've made along the way. I am excited to be graduating with a degree in Journalism, Advertising, and Media Studies, a minor in Film, Video, Animation, and New Genres, and an Honors degree.

My time at UWM has taught me so much about myself and the world around me. I left the country for the first time to study abroad in England, discovered and developed my passion for concert photography, and met some of my closest friends. I am so grateful for the incredible instructors, advisors, and fellow classmates who shaped my university experience.
