What is your favorite thing about Clemson?
"My favorite thing about Clemson is the spirit and attitude that people involved with the institution possess. The students, faculty, and alumni love Clemson and know that it is a great place but also have the dedication and drive to make make it even better. Clemson not only provides a student with a high quality education but also with the opportunity to develop as a person and to become a leader in any environment."

What does this scholarship mean to you?
"This scholarship has allowed me take advantage of the various opportunities that Clemson offers and to develop myself into a leader in the Clemson community. The generousity of people who came through Clemson before me wanted to make sure that the students today have the opportunity to have the same great experience as they did means a lot to me. I hope to do the same for someone else that comes after me."

What are your plans after graduation?
"After graduating in May, I will move to Baltimore, where I will start work in public accounting for KPMG as an auditor of financial services companies.  I am excited to move to the Baltimore/DC area, a place where there is a large number of Clemson alumni."
