My involvement in the Honors College: In addition to working as an Honors Student Ambassador, I lived in the HRC my first year and I have previously served as a Honors Peer Mentor and a SASH mentee. This year I will also act as a SASH mentor which I am really looking forward to.
My involvement in Clemson University: Around campus I serve as a University Tour Guide with the Clemson University Guide Association, I have held leadership positions within my Greek Chapter, I volunteer with ClemsonLIFE, and I’m a member of numerous honor societies such as Phi Kappa Phi, Omicron Delta Kappa, and Eta Sigma Gamma. Off campus, I’m currently completing a semester long internship at Piedmont Family Practice, and I serve two local nonprofit organizations, Greenville’s Gift and the Anderson Free Clinic.
Why I chose Clemson and the Honors College: Since Clemson is a larger institution, I knew I wanted to find a smaller community here on campus to support me in my academic and professional aspirations. Applying to the Honors College was one of the best decisions I’ve made and has definitely helped me fulfill this goal. I have loved getting to know the Honors faculty as well as so many incredible students. Clemson Honors has offered me countless experiences both inside and outside the classroom that have truly enhanced my time on campus for the better.
