Chayann Bantom

Hello! My name is Chayann Bantom, and I am a first-year Psychology major with a mental health concentration from Detroit, Michigan. A little bit about me: my favorite color is green, but I have recently started to like the color pink even more, especially baby pink. My favorite genre of music is R&B, and I enjoy learning languages and cultures that are new to me. In my family, I am the second-born child of three, and I also have a Yorkie named Pepper. I am passionate about learning and growing in every phase of my life, so I am extremely excited about what college brings!
