Why Montana Tech: When I was deciding on what school to attend, I was in search of an institute where I would be known by name, not just by my student ID number. At Tech, I am valued as a human, not just as a student. Tech embraces each student’s differences and works to make all individuals feel at home. Along with these qualities, Tech offers a great education and high job placements, within a variety of fields!
Research projects: Currently, I am studying the storage life of blood before transfusions occur. I am working with Dr. Ryan Stapley, along with an incredible group of peers. Through this, I am learning meaningful scientific and medical skills that I can carry on into my future career. This also gives me a great platform to encourage people to go donate blood!!
Three celebrities I would invite to a dinner party: Janis Joplin, Freddy Mercury, and Harry Styles. I think it would be inspiring if these three creative and progressive minds came together. At the very least, the charisma in the room would be hilarious to hang out with!
What I think makes Butte special: Butte is one of those small towns that quickly grows on you! Park Street lined with small businesses, giving us the option to shop local in a variety of ways, and the entire town is dedicated to family ideologies. It is always remarkable to see an entire community come out and celebrate special occasions such as St. Patrick’s Day, or the Folk Festival, all together!
One thing I cannot go a day without: Music! If you walked into a room where I thought I was alone I can almost guarantee you will find me, headphones-in-ears, dancing like an idiot! Indie and Rock n’ Roll tend to be among my favorites, but please send me suggestions. I will listen to them all!!
