Biography

Union offered a sense of community that I did not feel at other colleges. I loved Union’s small, close-knit community and campus. I also was interested in Union’s excellent engineering program that I could pair with a liberal arts program, giving me a more well-rounded education that will help to better prepare me for the workforce.
