Q: What is the most important or memorable thing you learned in college/have learned at UMBC?

A: Being strong doesn't mean being the loudest person in the room or the last one to cry. To truly be a strong person is to be completely honest with yourself and with others, to have the courage to talk about your weaknesses and your darkest moments.

Q: Complete this sentence: "I am a big fan of __________"

A: Working together. I have always been very independent but after my first few failed attempts at programming without asking for help I realized that it is just impossible. Whether you are studying, planning a charity event, or robbing a bank working as a team always leads to better results.

Q: Do you have any UMBC stories, little-known facts about UMBC, favorite spots on campus, or anything else you’d like to share?

A: I once -almost- caught a squirrel in my lacrosse stick.
