WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? My career focus is on art and Linfield is helping me achieve this through the amazing classes and professors they provide.
 
WHAT IS THE BEST CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AT LINFIELD? The best class I have taken at Linfield was Evolution of Hip-Hop, because I really like music especially in that genre. The class just built my knowledge on hip-hop and made me critically think on something I love.
