The WVU Experience

The best piece of advice I could give to my freshman self is to not be afraid of taking chances and gaining new experiences. I am a member of the sorority Pi Beta Phi, and I've had the opportunity to serve as the director of public relations and marketing, as well as the vice president of recruitment. As much as I value these leadership opportunities, I cannot forget the amazing women who helped support me through my years as an undergraduate and I will forever treasure the friendships that I have made.
