It’s hard to sum up a day at UVA. To start, imagine waking up in a place that has been ranked the most beautiful college campus in America. You go to classes small enough for professors to know your name, within a university large enough to offer world-class resources and opportunities. With access to over 800 student clubs and organizations, you find your niche – and your people. And with proximity to Charlottesville’s active music and entertainment scene – and the beauty of the Blue Ridge mountains – you’re having fun, too. And that’s just the beginning.

Later on in life I'd like to care for the people who have laid down their lives to be just dedicated to service for others. I want to provide service to them.

If you don't do things yourself, you're going to find yourself waiting a long time, you know, doubting yourself. You know yourself. You know what you want to do. Go for it.

There's nothing like being able to bring a little joy to someone's world, whether that's at a basketball game or around grounds. Seeing someone's face light up, and smile, and laugh, and be entertained by your antics is what it's all about.
