I am from Miamisburg, Ohio, it’s a smaller city outside of the Dayton area (about 20 minutes away). I have 3 siblings, and older sister, a younger sister, and a younger brother. I am currently planning on majoring in Psychology Pre-Med, getting a BS degree, and a distinction in research. I have always been intrigued by the natural world around us, that is why I wanted to be a part of ENR scholars, to expand my knowledge of the environment and indulge in the beauty of nature. I’ve never really enjoyed anything involving excessive physical activity, but any time I go outdoors I want to explore further. I’m hoping that through this scholars group, I will be able to strengthen both body and mind as I connect more with the natural world I live in. I never really knew where to start with helping lessen my carbon footprint, and starting indulging on outdoor adventures , but I am hoping that in this program, I will be introduced to a larger spectrum of activities and possibly discover a new passion. I have never been rock climbing but I am very excited to learn through this class. I have alwa
ys been more of an introvert through my life and I believe that ENR scholars will grant me the ability to connect with my peers more thoroughly since we all share similar beliefs and interests. I am very excited for my experience here at OSU and am hoping that I will broaden my horizons and open up so many opportunities as my first year (and hopefully the years to follow) progresses. I am also very interested in doing a study abroad program at least once during my time here at OSU, I believe that studying abroad will enrich my experience and knowledge of the world, while giving me a look into a diverse culture, I also really enjoy traveling (so that helps a lot. 🙂 ).
