Why did you join the Diversity and Access Team?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I joined DAT because it was my first introduction to Trinity. I remember taking the Cultural Life Tour with a now graduated intern before my acceptance. My interactions with the team were so impactful, especially because I got to hear from other Black women at Trinity. I knew I wanted to impart that feeling of empowerment onto prospective students.<\/p>\n

What is the biggest lesson you learned from your first semester on campus?<\/strong><\/p>\n

After my first semester, I learned that you can find a second home away from home with dedication to finding community. I came in my freshman fall ambitious and joined many cultural organizations to find my best fit. Now I serve on the executive board for o-STEM and Trinity College\u2019s Black Women Organization, so it\u2019s been really gratifying to feel my endeavors pay off.<\/p>\n

How has a liberal arts education fostered your thinking?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Going to a liberal arts college as a STEM major is so interesting because it offers such a holistic perspective. Especially with a minor in Black American studies, I feel like I have well-rounded perspectives on topics that I discuss in my biomedicine classes.<\/p>\n

What legacy do you hope to leave?<\/strong><\/p>\n

After my time here, I hope to leave a legacy of empathetic leadership and dedication to service. I love the organizations I\u2019m involved in, so hosting events with a focus on community outreach is something I want to last at Trinity.<\/p>\n

How has the city of Hartford impacted your college experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Something I especially appreciate about Trinity is that it\u2019s located in a city filled with history. There\u2019s great food (especially the off-campus taco shops), cool events like Hartford Pride, and plenty of opportunities to give back to the community.<\/p>\n

What areas of campus make you feel at home?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love the Underground Coffeehouse\u2013 it\u2019s a great space to study and chat with friends, and there\u2019s so much beautiful artwork to take in. And on sunny days, you\u2019ll most likely find me on a blanket on the quad!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
