Why Calvin? I came to Calvin because I knew I would fit here. I grew up familiar with it, knew a lot of people who went here in the past, and they all loved it. I had a great experience during my visit, the people are great, the team was amazing, and it had what I wanted academically.

Future Plans: Somewhere in the engineering world, hopefully energy resources

Faith Journey: At Calvin my faith has really become my own. At college you’re suddenly left making all of your decisions yourself, and that includes your spiritual life. For me this has actually helped me a lot in being more proactive in my relationship with God. I always have the choice of whether or not I’ll continue to grow in my faith today, and it’s so rewarding to say yes to that when you truly make it your own.
