- Why did you choose your major?
I chose fashion merchandising because fashion was always a part of my life. I helped my grandma sew ever since I can remember and created fashion sketches anytime I could, so when it came time to make a college decision I knew fashion merchandising was a perfect match.
- Why did you want to be a FACS Ambassador?
I wanted to become a FACS Ambassador because I want to spread my love for FACS to other students as well as make sure my peers and fellow students have the same amazing experience.
- What do you like most about FACS?
The people I have had the opportunity to meet in FACS is something that has made my UGA experience so memorable. Students in FACS meet other students and you create a family with people you did not expect to.
- What advice would you give to new students?
I would tell new students to remember that it is all going to work out. When you are stressed or overwhelmed with school, it's important to remember that.
- What is your favorite place to study on campus?
My favorite place to study is the Main Library.
- What is one thing you wish more people knew about FACS?
One thing I wish more people knew about FACS is the variety of majors we offer and the importance of the majors offered to the professional world.
