University of California- Los Angeles, Junior; Miss COED 2016 Semifinalist

MY COLLEGE KICKS ASS BECAUSE…

I love UCLA because college is a time to connect, discover, try new things, and most importantly, grow into the person you are meant to be. I strongly believe there is no better college to accomplish all these things than UCLA. Not only is UCLA extremely well-rounded, excelling in both academics and athletics, but it’s also extremely rich in culture, diversity, and character. At UCLA you have the opportunity to become the best student, athlete, and person you can be. All of the students who choose UCLA are choosing one of the most difficult paths and also one of the most fulfilling. UCLA is the strong foundation that will catapult you into the life you’ve always dreamed of.

THE COOLEST PLACE TO PARTY ON CAMPUS IS…

I’d say the quality of a party strongly depends on the people you are surrounded with. I believe the best place to party is where you are with your friends, whether that be a frat party or an athlete party. Both are awesome, but having your close friends with you makes all the difference.

THE MOST MEMORABLE THING I’VE DONE SINCE FRESHMAN YEAR IS…

The most memorable thing I’ve done since freshman year is a hard question to answer. Bruin Bash my freshman year was awesome and every single sport event is so much fun. But I’d have to say my most memorable memory was when I had my first home gymnastics meet (I am part of the gymnastics team). I watched the UCLA gymnastics team for so long as a young girl and to finally be on the team at a home competition in Pauley was surreal.

DESCRIBE YOUR LAST FRIDAY NIGHT.

Last Friday I was actually moving in to my new apartment and then finished the night off with a movie.

WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE MISS COED 2016?

I was given the opportunity, and I’ve learned that college is the time to try anything you are interested in and so I thought- why not?

IF YOU COULD GIVE OUR READERS ONE PIECE OF ADVICE, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

Live in the moment and appreciate every one that you have because life flies by and can be taken away from you at any moment. So love what you do and love the person you are and do everything you can to be proud of the life you have the opportunity to live.
