What is something you would like the blog readers to know about you that they wouldn’t know by just looking at you?

I am very hard-working and am very interested in being a wine sommelier.

What is one thing that you are most anticipating about your study abroad experience?

I have never been to Europe, so I am excited to travel. I am excited to immerse myself in a new culture I’ve read so much about, and I am excited to share my experiences with my family and friends through gifts and stories when I finish studying abroad.

Why did you decide to study abroad? or What inspired you to study abroad?

I am studying Hospitality with a concentration in Food and Beverage Management, so I am very interested in learning about the food and beverage culture in Italy. I have always wanted to travel, and this study abroad experience DU offers made my decision to come to school here very easy. I have heard stories about people abroad, and I want to be able to create my own stories/memories with my college friends.

My happy place, the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri. It also has my dog, Walter, in it. I am excited to relax at the lake this summer before my study abroad adventure.
