Why did you choose to attend Mayville State University?
The small campus and great education program.

I like the family atmosphere Mayville has to offer, as well as the easy communication between students and teachers.

Do you participate in any activities related to your major/minor? Internships? Work Study? Other?
I work in the Writing Center on campus, which goes along with English Education.

Have you had any unique opportunities, in or out of the classroom, while you’ve been enrolled at Mayville State?
Being involved with the Cometeers is the most unique opportunity I’ve had at Mayville State, along with the Pay It Forward Tour. I also enjoyed being a part of the Larson Leadership Program as a freshman.

I am the president and co-founder of the Cometeers and am also the president of the Student Senate.

How have these activities enhanced your college experience?
They have drastically changed my outlook on life and have turned me into a better leader. I have been able to learn my strengths and weaknesses and act accordingly.

What has been your greatest moment as a Mayville State student?
Starting the Cometeers organization and everything that goes along with it.

What does personal service mean to you?
Personal service is similar to discretionary effort, meaning going beyond one’s self. This includes giving yourself up for the benefit of something higher than yourself.

What are your plans after graduating from Mayville State?
I plan to teach high school English and coach football. I am undecided on where, but am considering Colorado or Wyoming. I would like to teach in a medium-sized town, so it’s not too big or too little. My final hope is to start a volunteer program at the high school where I teach, and possibly surrounding high schools, to teach students the importance of volunteering.
