What I’m Doing Now

I was recently selected as both a Boren and Gilman Scholar and will begin my Capstone year abroad in Taipei, Taiwan in September. There I will attend National Yang Ming Qiao Tung University to study intercultural personal communication, international relations, and continue to improve my Chinese proficiency.

Favorite Thing About URI

Overall, I feel incredibly grateful for my time at URI. Although there are so many things that I love about the University from the sushi in the Union to the excitement of the Rhody basketball games, I would have to say that my favorite part about URI has been the people I have met. Whether this is professors, faculty, peers, or some of the lifelong friends I have made throughout my undergraduate career, these people have all aided me in becoming who I am today and have allowed my time as a Rhody Ram to be a truly incredible experience for which I am forever grateful.
