What makes Winthrop special to you?
Winthrop is special to me because for a while, it was my second home! As soon as I
came to Winthrop as a student, I immediately felt welcomed, cared for, and felt the
push to succeed and to become better! Now that I am back at my alma mater as staff,
It is even more special to share all that Winthrop has to offer to its students and
how it gives each student a sense of accomplishment and belonging!
What is your favorite part of Winthrop?
My favorite part of Winthrop is getting to work with prospective or current students.
As a former Eagle, it is special to share why Winthrop is a home for all who come
to our campus. Another wonderful part of my job is getting to work with my amazing
colleagues who truly strive to make Winthrop one of the best universities!
What advice do you have for an incoming student?
My advice to any student is to believe in yourself and to remember that you are capable
of accomplishing hard things. Coming to college can be overwhelming and at times stressful,
but it is also a step in the right direction of your future and chasing after your
wildest dreams!
