I Think TCU Is a Great University Because: TCU is a medium sized liberal arts college with large university resources. I strongly believe that our ambitious student body combined with their access to limitless resources (both on and off campus) makes a prime location. Additionally, TCU is located in a city surrounded by opportunities to connect with the broader community and build lifelong connections both personally as well as professionally. This is truly a place that our Horned Frogs proudly call home.
Hobbies and Interests: I love watching, playing, and coaching basketball. You will probably catch me in a local theater catching the latest Marvel and DC movies. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends.
Favorite Class in College: Foundations of Leadership (taught by Dr. Bill Stackman); Youth Development & Advocacy (taught by Dr. Corliss Outley)
If You Visited Me in My Office You’d See: You will probably find pictures of my family, friends, mentors, and former students. Additionally, I tend to hold onto notes of praise as well. Both of these things keep me both centered and grounded.
My Advice to You: I would equate navigating the admission process to operating a Global Positioning System (GPS). As you enter your final destination (dream college) then you may be offered a number of routes to your final destination. Carefully consider each option and the potential challenge(s) associated with each of those pathways. Then choose a route and commit to the journey. Throughout the journey, remember that you are both able and resilient. And it is not about where you start but instead how you finish.
