What made you choose to come to Auburn?
My grandfather and father graduated from Auburn, so I grew up an Auburn fan. I am proud to continue the family tradition.

How has receiving the Alumni Scholarship impacted your life?Receiving the scolarship helped me feel like all of my hard work in high school paid off. I am also proud to be able to help my parents out with the tuition. I have a twin sister, who will also be attending Auburn, so I know the scolarship is greatly appreciated by my parents.

What has been your best experience at Auburn so far? I have not attended any classes yet, but I had a great experience at Camp War Eagle. I made some great friends, and I loved my counselor. Orientation really helped me feel relaxed about starting college.

What would you say to a high school student from your area who is considering coming to Auburn University?I have not experienced much at Auburn yet because I am and incoming freshman. However, I would tell them that there is so much to get involved in and so many academic options. Auburn has a great academic reputation. The most important thing I would tell them is how proud I am to be an Auburn student. Having pride in your school is key to promoting it. And, who doesn’t love Auburn football games?

What clubs/activities are you a part of?
