I chose to attend Georgia State University because it wasn't as expensive as my first choice and the business school is nationally ranked.

Campus Activities and Organizations: 1913 Society Ambassador, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. - President, Inroads Student Association, Incept Orientation Leader,  Emerging Leaders graduate and mentor.

Most Memorable Georgia State experience: The day I probated!!!

If you could be a cartoon character, who would you be and why? Bugs Bunny! Every cartoon character wants to be him and he is a very complete character!

Favorite Georgia State tradition: Tuesday & Thursday Plaza Time!!

What advice would you give to incoming students? Get what you pay for. Your education is what you make, so go out and take advantage of the resources that are laid out for you.

After I graduate from Georgia State, I hope to secure a well paying job in my career field!
