I am a second-year student from Riverton, Wyoming. She is studying psychology in hopes
to become a school counselor. She loves to play clarinet and plays in the Western
Thunder Marching Band and UW Symphonic Band. In her free time, she enjoys painting,
reading, and scrapbooking.
My favorite part about the Honors College is the interdisciplinary aspect. Many intellectual
conversations stem from the fact that everyone in class is studying something different
and can provide different perspectives.
