Why did you choose Northeastern?

I chose Northeastern because I wanted to go to a college around this size. The location of NJC isn't too far from home either, and the cost was a big factor in choosing NJC also.

What do you like about your area of study?

What I like about my area of study is that the classes are fun and interesting. My business professors are great and I have learned a lot so far in my short time here.

What do you plan to do after graduation?

I plan to go straight into the workforce at a job to gain more experience and save up money if I plan to obtain my bachelor's degree.

What inspires you?

What inspires me is my dad. He is the most hardworking person I know and no matter the obstacles he doesn't give up. That motivates me to finish what I started because hard work pays off at the end, no matter how hard it gets.

What is your favorite awkward moment at Northeastern?

An awkward moment that happened to me was when I was working and I was on my phone, not paying attention to where I was walking, and there were big windows on each side of the door and when I glanced up I though it was the door that was open. I ran right into the window. Thankfully only two people saw me, but it was so embarrassing.
