What is your favorite thing about Emmanuel College? 

My favorite thing about Emmanuel College is the community! The students, faculty, and staff, are so kind and helpful that they make everyone feel right at home. 

What is your favorite thing to do in Boston? 

As a huge Red Sox fan, my favorite thing to do in Boston is going to games at Fenway Park. I try to go to as many games as possible each year and they are always a blast. It’s hard to beat the crowd at Fenway! I also love exploring different restaurants around the city, especially in the North End.

What is the one piece of advice you would give prospective students about the college process? 

One piece of advice that I would give to prospective students is to try to attend as many events as possible to learn more about different schools and spend time on college campuses. Each event, from college fairs, to tours, to Open Houses all allow you to explore a different piece of a school and the college process. Spending time at a certain campus can also help you get a sense if you can see yourself there! 

What is the most exciting aspect of working in Admissions? 

The most exciting thing about working in Admissions is getting to connect with so many different students and be part of their college search process. I love getting to know such talented and inspiring people from all different backgrounds and assist them in such a pivotal time in their life.
