MyCALSMoment

Last year, I took classes in a variety of fields, including Information Science, Developmental Sociology, and Entomology, an experience I would never have if I was not a student in CALS!

What has been an academic highlight for you within your major? 

I love how Information Science spans so many disciplines, ranging from economics to behavior science and even forms of design and user interaction. I love being able to take classes and learn about how technology is becoming a more powerful force in our world.

How have you found your closest friends at Cornell?

Joining clubs! I cannot emphasize how much joining clubs has helped me find my people, regardless of their year. Joining clubs allows you to meet like-minded people who all have a common interest and work ethic.

What are your post-graduation goals?

I really hope to work in Venture Capital, fusing my love for technology with my passion for Project Management and business as a whole. Hopefully, I can create my own startup in the future!
