 Why did you choose to attend The University of Texas at Austin?

UT was actually the only school in Texas that I applied to, having my heart set on California. However, I am really happy that I ended up at UT and I love McCombs.

 Why did you choose the MPA program?

Proverbs 13:20 says “He who walks with the wise grows wise.” In the MPA program, you are surrounded by some of the brightest people you will ever meet. Not to mention, it is the number one accounting program in the nation. Certainly sounds like an opportunity to capitalize on!

Where are your favorite places to go and favorite things to do in Austin?

Favorite place in Austin is Mount Bonnell. Go at sunrise, go at sunset. Go in the winter, go in the summer. You won’t be disappointed. Speaking of winter, in December, every Austinite should check out the Trail of Lights. It is magical!

What are your favorite free-time activities?

Photography! You’ll never find me without a camera.
