What do you love most about being a Niner?

What I love most about being a Niner is the welcoming community, the diversity of experiences, and the countless opportunities to grow both personally and academically while building lifelong connections.

What made you want to be a Housing Ambassador? 

I chose to become a Housing Ambassador because HRL played a huge role in helping me build meaningful connections at UNC Charlotte—something I had only dreamed of before. I want to help other students find their place in this community, just like I did. Plus, I’ve always had a passion for giving tours and sharing my experiences with others.

What extracurricular activities are you involved with on campus?

I am a member of National Residence Hall Honorary, and I am also on a competitive Esports team with Niner Esports. 

What is the best part about living on campus? 

The best part for me is the community! Before coming to UNC Charlotte, I had never experienced a true sense of community, but living on campus helped me find an incredible group of people.
