About
Major: German
Minors: Biochemistry and Translation Studies
Bio: Hallo! My name is Evelyn, and I’m a senior majoring in German and minoring in Biochemistry and Translation Studies. I’m from Macomb, Michigan and have been taking German classes ever since junior high school, which is where I absolutely fell in love with the language and culture. I’ve been a member of German Club since my sophomore year and am currently on the German Club Eboard. I was also a member of the Max Kade Haus this past year, and I would love to answer any questions you have about the program, because it was such a life-changing experience to me! I’m also happy to answer questions about study abroad opportunities as well as discussing how to navigate a German major with STEM or balancing classes with a job, as I work part-time. Additionally, the last couple of years have been a huge journey of self-discovery and a lot of change academically, so if you’d like any advice or encouragement, I’d love to support you. I’m also more than happy to just talk about German culture, language, and university life -especially over coffee as I’m a very passionate barista!
