Position: Senior Senator
Year: Senior

Major: Marketing
Minor: Philosophy
Hometown: Rockford, IL
What I do during my downtime: In my down time I love to go to concerts, listen to music, volunteer, and hang out with friends and family.
Why I chose Rockford College: My dad is an alumnus of RC, so I have been hanging around this campus since I was ten. When it came time for me to apply to colleges, RC was a back up college for me. However, at the last minute I decided RC was the better fit. I am so glad I made that last minute decision because this school has become a second home for me and opened so many doors in many different respects.
My favorite thing about Rockford College: If you read any publicity for the college, you will most likely find a quote from a student who mentions the close-knit family-like atmosphere around RC. It has almost become cliché to say so, but it really is true! When you are a student, faculty, or staff of the college, you are a part of the RC family.
Plans after I graduate: I plan to go straight on to graduate school to earn a master’s degree in Higher Education and then work in student life at a college or university.
