TMI student values encouraging nature of FACS professors

What school did you transfer from?

Kennesaw State University

Why did you decide to transfer to UGA?

I have always dreamed of going to UGA! I love the atmosphere and the opportunities UGA brings!

What is your major?

Furnishings & Interiors with a minor in Landscape Architecture

Why did you choose your major?

I have always loved thinking about what I would change about a house. Pointing out everything I would do differently. When trying to decide a major, Interior Design was the first thing everyone told me. After being in the major I have grown to love it so much more!

What activities or student organizations do you participate in?

Greek life

What do you like about FACS?

I love how encouraging our professors are. They offer so much more than just education. They have given us real life scenarios and put us to work by making us create real life models of our floor plans!

Is there a faculty or staff person who has been particularly helpful during your transfer journey?

Anne Allen has been there since I started at UGA! She has helped me with any struggle I have had! She has been an amazing advisor!

What has your favorite UGA and/or FACS experience been?

My favorite has to be working late on floors plans and having the entire class in there with you. We are all tired but push each other to get everything done. This is a weekly thing so it keeps things fun!
