How has New Maroon Camp impacted you? :

During my first week on campus, I was worried about whether I would be able to find my place on such a big campus. New Maroon Camp allowed me to meet so many amazing people, become even more confident in myself, and grow as a person and individual being away from home for the first time. The best part about New Maroon Camp is that it is not just a one week experience. You become family with these people and get to walk alongside them for your next four years.

Favorite Starkville Restaurant:

Stromboli's or Bin 612

When asked about a “Dream Date”:

That's a tough one. I'd have to say April 25th. Because it's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.

Favorite MSU Memory:

A group my friends and I got together one night and played hide and go seek and capture the flag on the Drill Field.

Favorite Moment at MSU:

My favorite MSU moment would definitely have to be the Egg Bowl my freshmen year. It was so fun to be in the student section dancing and cheering with all of my best friends, and then when Ole Miss missed that field goal, the feeling that came over everyone was unreal. Everyone was so giddy and we didn't stop talking about it for weeks!
