Hello friends! My name is Avery Colburn. I am a freshman in the College of Engineering with plans to major in engineering physics. I am from just outside Seattle, WA. Moving to cross country was understandably one of the toughest and biggest changes of my life but I have found Cornell Catholic to be such a welcoming and supportive environment ever since the start of the first-year retreat. My faith really began strengthening during high school so I am incredibly thankful for the environment I have found myself in here. I have found a place to grow in my faith and people to share my journey with. Knowing how much of a difference Cornell Catholic made for me is what compelled me to join the New Student Outreach team where I get the opportunity to make the difference for incoming classes. I hope you will consider joining our community so that we can help lift each other in God's goodness.
