Last month, I had the amazing opportunity to return to my Alma mater, Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. I would always think it was an exaggeration when people said “college is the best four years of your life,” or “you might want to graduate now, but you’ll miss this place like crazy once you graduate!” but now I know its true.

Purdue afforded me so many fantastic opportunities and experiences I will never forget. I made life-long friends and attained an education that is priceless. I will always be grateful for Purdue and what it did offer, and the benefits of being an alumni of such an amazing institution to this day.
