Dream career goals:
At Tabor College, I have been a Resident Assistant, and I have found it incredibly fulfilling. I will be going to Wheaton College in Fall of 2026 to get my graduate degree in Higher Education and Student Affairs, and hopefully I will be able to have a Graduate Resident Advisor position. After that, I hope to be a Residential Educator/Director. The goal would be to go back to Tabor College, but we’ll see what happens.
