One of my favorite memories from Grand Valley was being a part of the GVSU Dance Troupe. I had never taken any type of organized dance classes prior but soon fell in love with the art of dance. I still dance both recreationally and competitively today.

My favorite memory of being a Grand Valley Student is being a Resident Assistant (RA) for two years. This is a very competitive opportunity that I was fortunate to be a part of for 2 years.
