What does graduating from Nebraska mean to you?
Graduating from Nebraska means so much. It means I have a strong education, a strong network, friends for life. It means I now get to give back.
Transformational moment
There are so many to choose from! Obviously, this past year as student regent has been pretty transformative in so many ways -- I have explored new career options, built strong relationships, and gained a new understanding for what how many people love and care about Nebraska. It has made me a better person and leader. I also think classes like Dr. Maag's Behavior Management (SPED 454) reminded me how much I love teaching and how excited I am to enter into a teaching career.
Involvement

Plans after graduation
I will be teaching special education in Elkhorn Public Schools in Elkhorn, NE.
After graduation, I am most looking forward to
Continuing to learn and grow to become the best teacher I can be.
The best thing about being a Husker is
The great people you meet.
