    Top 10 Lessons I Learned in College

    Happy Elon Day! I graduated in May 2017 from Elon University in Elon, North Carolina.

    2015 in a Nutshell

    Happy 2016 everyone! I can’t believe 2015 is over! It seriously feels like yesterday I was counting down to it and hoping for an amazing year. I couldn’t have asked for more out of 2015. It wasn’t all good, but there were so many amazing memories I wouldn’t trade for the world. Here are my highlights of 2015: Gut2Web — Gut4Life 2015 brought me the opportunity to travel abroad. My school runs on a three semester cycle — we have a fall and spring semester, but we also have a winter term (also known as J-Term because it is during the month on January) that is one month dedicated to…
