About Me

Biography I am originally from Anaheim, CA but recently moved to King George, VA.  I came to VMI under the impression that I had an Army scholarship, this however was taken from me the day before matriculation and that set the tone for the rest of my cadetship.  I started super HOOAH and have become the epitome of all that is non-comm, and that means I can focus all of my attention on my academic pursuits.  Coming to VMI was the best bad decision that I ever made, and I couldn’t see myself going to any other school.  I am a chemistry major and I hope to pursue either a doctorate in chemistry or a doctorate in the medical field.
