Major

Housing Management and Policy 

Activities/Honors

I work at Classic City Real Estate in Athens, focusing on single-family property management, and have been with the company since starting at UGA. I'm gaining hands-on experience in all aspects of property management. I am a member of the UGA Club Ultimate Frisbee team, involved in the H.O.U.S.E. organization, and serve as a student leader with IREM.

Why I chose my major

I’ve been interested in real estate from a young age and have always had an entrepreneurial passion for development. After exploring a few different majors, I met with my advisor and was introduced to Housing Management & Policy, which felt like the perfect fit.

What I like most about FACS

 I love the smaller, more personal classes, which make it easy to ask questions and build relationships with my peers and professors. It’s given me the opportunity to form strong connections and have mentors I know I can reach out to for guidance and recommendations in the future.

Post-graduation plans

After graduation, I plan to study abroad in Greece as a final experience before starting my career, then move to Denver for an internship in multifamily property management.
