What motivated you to become a ClarkLEADER?
I wanted to become a ClarkLEADER because I believe I can help and guide new students in navigating their transitions into university life to the best of my capability. As a transfer student myself, I understand the challenges involved and can share valuable insights to smooth the transition for others.

What is one piece of advice you would like to share with new Maryland Engineering students?
One piece of advice I have for new students is to not be shy or hesitant. Pursue your interests and utilize all the resources available to you from the start. There is no right choice; the right choice is what interests you. Don’t hesitate to ask for help from anyone you think can assist you, as most people are willing and open to help.
