What made you choose to come to Auburn?
I am a third generation Auburn student. I grew up cheering on the football team, having Toomer’s Lemonade, and hearing stories of my parent’s college days. In addition, Auburn has one of Air Force ROTC detachments and flight programs in the nation.

How has receiving the Alumni Scholarship impacted your life?There are four members of my family attending college, and my father is the only one working full time to pay tuition, so any scholarship money I could earn to aid my family was a big help.

What has been your best experience at Auburn so far? Attending my first Iron Bowl with my sister.

What would you say to a high school student from your area who is considering coming to Auburn University?Auburn has a wide variety of majors, student activities, as well as a football team that is second to none.
