UCSC puts their students first and has made a supportive community which was something very important to me."
Her mom is her most influential person because "she has always taught me to be strong and stand up for what I believe in. She is my biggest supporter and loves me endlessly. She taught me how to be independent and form my own opinions and also taught me how to be a great leader and how to listen to others around me. My mom has shaped me into the person I am today and I will forever be grateful for the things she has done for me."
