My favourite place on campus

Dewey's

What's your favourite part about working with Campus United?

I love talking with curious people and learning about subjects that I haven't studied. It's amazing to hear what other people care about and what gets them excited!

What does community mean to you?

To me, community means more than just a group of people who know each other. It's people who support each other in practical ways - a meal, a ride to a job interview, a heart-to-heart conversation. It's having fun and spending time together, or hanging out in your house doing nothing. It's a safe place to ask tough questions, knowing that you still belong.

What song would play when you walk into a room?

It would depend on my mood, but right now I'm into "Wild" by Spoon.

Wandering to my newest random location instead of getting an assignment done.

Describe your Campus United work in 3 words

Creative, welcoming, community-focused.

What’s a value you try to live by?

Confidence. I believe I can achieve anything I truly want. I don’t see failure as an option—if I wantsomething, I trust myself to find a way to make it happen.

What’s your most irrationally strong opinion?

Fruit should stay in its original form. Juice is acceptable. Everything else is an unnecessary violation of fruit.

Peaceful, Adventurous & Welcoming

What’s one thing that makes you feel connected to something bigger than yourself?

My faith. I am a Christian and I believe in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour.

What’s your most irrationally strong opinion?

Sweet and savoury have no business being together. Honey- glazed wings? Sweet barbecue sauce? Pick a side!! If I bite into meat and taste sugar, you’ve already lost me.
