What are your post-graduation plans?
Oberlin College.
How did you make your decision?
I stressed a lot between another college that’s the opposite of Oberlin, but so much cheaper. But I decided ultimately that for me wanting a very hands-on, close learning environment, and to be with my best friend in the world Rhys [Hals], that Oberlin was a better option and a better investment.
How would you describe your post-grad search?
A nightmare. A dark nightmare. With stress and essay after essay and no help from guidance. And there was not ever a point where I was like, this is worth it. Maybe there will be in four years.
What advice do you have?
I would say you have to know what you want. Then you need to have a good coping mechanism. I did yoga. What else? I did a lot of talking about it, an excessive amount of talking.
