Why did you choose to study abroad?
I chose to study abroad because I have big aspirations, and in order to reach my full potential, I need to get out of my bubble. I grew up in a big city with a small town feel and further decided to choose a university with a similar nature. Studying abroad guarantees new and diverse people, places, and opportunities. I know that there is so much more out there, but I have to push my boundaries. I am excited to see the world from a new perspective while simultaneously growing personally and professionally.
