Why did you choose to major in INDS?

I heard about INDS at orientation. When I heard that there was only a creative writing minor, I wanted to create my own major that could combine both my love of writing, and my love of art/comic books. This is where I settled, and I've enjoyed every minute of it!

What are your plans for after graduation, and how do you see using your INDS degree?

I plan on going into freelance writing-- making and writing storyboards and coming up with ideas for novels and comic books I want to write.

Any thing you would like to share about your time at UMBC or in the INDS program?

I really enjoyed my time at UMBC and the INDS program, if you told me I would have the connections I have now with UMBC or INDS, I thought you'd be lying. I've met so many people and friends through this college and program, and have really enjoyed it.
