What was your most memorable moment as a CFS student?
I know everyone was just like real welcoming. They really wanted me to feel comfortable and even helped me transition into CFS. So I would say the first week was the most memorable.
As a senior, what advice would you give your freshmen self?
To focus on what I want to do but don’t disregard my responsibilities. Also, hold yourself to a higher standard. I would have also told myself to find a balance between things that I want to do because freshmen year was a difficult year for everyone due to covid, and I wish I had pursued activities I was interested in and maybe find a possible passion. But since I had all this free time (during Covid), it was easy for me to just like to push stuff aside, and I wish I could’ve taken things more seriously.
What is your senior capstone project?
My senior capstone project is about mental health. Primarily because I feel like a lot of guys feel weird talking about their mental health. Instead, they hide their emotions or feel too ashamed to talk about it.
They’ve also been conditioned to think that it’s like not important because they’re a guy, whereas girls are more open with it. And in contrast, women don’t really get shunned for it. So my capstone just focused on ways people can be open about their mental health here.
