Why did you choose to study or intern abroad? And why did you choose your destination? I chose to study abroad because I’m currently obtaining my architectural studies degree, and I thought what better why to learn about the history of architecture than fully immersing myself into it all! With that being said, my family is Italian and I have relatives who are currently in Italy. This is what made Florence stick out to me so much, with its combination of family history and architectural history.

What is one new experience you're hoping to have while studying abroad?
While I’m abroad, I’m hoping that I can get a true feeling of the Italian culture. Since I’ll be able to stay there for a few months, I’m hoping to be able to get into a routine, and fully experience the Italian culture.

What is something you're passionate and excited about?
I’m very passionate about art as well as staying active, like going on hikes, playing tennis, swimming, etc. I just love being outside!

what class are you most looking forward to taking while studying abroad?
I’m looking forward to my studio class the most, as we get to design a vineyard which I cannot wait for!
