Choose a fun path, something that you can poor your time and heart into without getting burnt out of. It seems in many cases the best work comes from the people who have the most fun doing it. So as much as you should take things seriously you should also not.

The opportunity to explore a more creative profession. All my life I've loved to create and problem solve, so when I discovered this school the values of ENVD resonated with me. It was something I could be passionate convicted to do well.
What is one of the greatest experiences or lessons from your time at CU Boulder that you'll carry with you into the next chapter of your life?

Describe one of your favorite memories.
ENVD open house was a definite favorite. Being able to see all the student work everyone's worked all semester on in one final debut.
If you could say anything to your classmates what would you say?

A point in my life where I can start doing more things for myself. I will have more opportunities to explore personal projects and ambitions and begin to learn more about the world as a whole.
