How long have you lived in NYC? Born and raised in NY  

What is your favorite part about living in NYC? Meeting my UIUC alumni friends who always find their way to NYC either as a vacation/work destination or as a stopover before moving on to another destination

What is your best UIUC memory? It's just not possible to point to one single memory. I'll never forget the student life, the wonderful midwestern hospitality, the incredible BIG10 campus experience, the tailgating, and our amazing law school family (especially when our professors welcomed us into their homes)

Why are you on the Metro NYC Illini board? Attending UIUC School of Law was one of the best experiences of my life, in every way. I made lifelong friends and I will always cherish my memories from that experience. I joined the Metro NYC Illini board because  I wanted to remain connected in some way to UIUC. I also wanted to find a way give back to my alma mater, promote it, and share my experiences with future alumni (which I can do as the Scholarship Committee Chairperson)
