My name is Raina Rotondo, and I am an only child from Green, Ohio, which is a city located just south of Akron. I went to Green High School and participated in many extracurricular activities including cheerleading, track, gymnastics, National Honors Society, Do Something Club, Musical Theater, and choir and ensemble. Throughout the last two years, I have also been an active member of my church by volunteering in the youth program and singing in the worship group. I chose The Ohio State University because it has always been my dream to be a Buckeye! My specific program of interest is civil engineering. I enjoy watching HGTV and have always had an interest in, and passion for, buildings and structures. This love of architectural components paired with my aptitude for math made civil engineering seem like the perfect fit for me. I aspire to be an architectural engineer by double majoring in civil engineering and architecture at Ohio State. I hope to be socially, civically, and philanthropically engaged during my time at Ohio State through my involvement with the Mount Scholars Leadership Society, Block O, and Cru/Real Life. I am always open to making new friends and love going out for ice cream, which is my favorite food. I also enjoy going to OSU sporting events, especially the football games.  Go Bucks!
