What is your favorite class?
I really enjoy the telecommunications class that I am currently taking. It is interesting to learn about the networks that connect MSOE and then actually go and see them.

What have you like most about your MSOE experience so far?
MSOE has been a place where many opportunities have been made available to me due to the small size of the school. I am able to experience and try many new things that larger institutions would not be able to provide.

Beyond academics, what have you learned at MSOE?
MSOE has been a place that has taught me about leadership. Through various clubs, organizations, and classes I have been able to practice my leadership skills and become a more effective leader.

What are you involved in outside of school? How do you spend your free time?
Outside of school I am the president of the Student Union Board and work as the senior resident assistant. Both of these positions take a lot of my free time. I enjoy photography and when I have a spare moment I like to walk around Milwaukee and take pictures of the city.

What’s your favorite memory at MSOE?
My favorite memory at MSOE is participating in the annual engineering Olympics that are held during the St. Patrick’s week celebration.

Do you have advice for students considering MSOE?
MSOE is a school that will challenge you academically. Be prepared to work hard, but remember to have fun and enjoy your time at college.

How (why) did you choose MSOE? Are you happy with your decision?
I choose MSOE because of its small class size and location in the city. I have been very pleased with my decision and wouldn’t go back and change it.
