  • Trailer: Welcome to the Dorm to Diploma Podcast!

    College is surely one wild ride, and it definitely is not easy. No one hands you a manual that tells you exactly how the next four years of your life will look like. There will be twists and turns, questions you can’t find the answers to, and nights where you feel like you have no clue what you just signed up for. That’s where I come in!

    As a soon to be graduate, I have been met with the same questions you are asking yourself right now. I have survived the ramen diet, the group projects where you all have no clue what you’re doing, the nights where you’re up until 3 in the morning stuck on the same question from your biology assignment, and everything else in between. 

    This podcast shares weekly episodes that serve as your step by step guide to making it from the dorm room to the diploma, while keeping your sanity (mostly) intact. I’ve juggled the heavy class load, finding and navigating the school/work/ social life balance, financial struggles, and found beauty in the unforeseeable future that we all will face. 

    In this podcast, I’ll share my hacks, failures, the lessons I’ve learned along the way, and my advice that I wish I heard when I was in your shoes. I am about to toss my cap in the air, I’m here to help you get to a place where you can toss yours!
