How beautiful it is! It’s not uncommon for the person in front of you on the sidewalk to spontaneously stop and take a photo while walking around campus. My camera roll is filled with sunsets, architecture, nature, and cute little animals from around campus!
Another one of my absolute favorite places is Olin Library. There are so many great spots in Olin to study and a nice little cafe that I sometimes frequent a little too often! There is one reading room in particular that I especially love for the botanical paintings all over the walls and its great view of the Arts Quad.
It's a cliché, but Libe Slope is my favorite; the views are stunning! When being a Cornell student was just a dream, I used to have a photo of the slope as my iPad background. Now I go there at least once a week. To me, it's really a dream come true!
I am part of the Veterans Association at Cornell University, Cornell Cinema Student Advisory Board, and the Big Red Pep Band.
My go-to campus resources are the Career Center and the Engineering Advising Office. I found the career center during the Veteran Summer Bridge Program, which was an invaluable opportunity to gain course credit and extensive knowledge about campus resources before my first semester at Cornell! Then, after expressing that I wanted more guidance from within the College of Engineering, I was personally introduced to my current advisor in the Engineering Advising Office. It's been a game-changer. Don't be afraid to seek out and use your resources! So many people on campus can't wait to help you succeed; it will make the biggest difference in your time here.

The active undergraduate student veteran population greatly contributed to my decision to attend Cornell. From day one, I felt so welcomed and supported by my community. I have a group of people I know who have my back no matter what and are always there to provide advice, guidance, and active support in whatever I need help with.
