Why did you choose to attend RPI?
I chose RPI because I heard from an alumnus the program for COMD was really enjoyable and the professors were excellent! I wanted a place that was relatively small as well. I watched YouTube videos of students’ experiences at RPI, and the overall consensus was positive, especially in terms of club variety.
What is your favorite RPI memory?
In the winter, I love to go on the Ski Club trips. I had a ton of fun re-learning to ski with my friends on Jiminy Peak.
What is your favorite thing to do in Troy?
The Farmers' Market in Troy is huge! I like to go there once in a while.
