WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because it allowed me to pursue a quality education and play baseball.
 
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? Being a student-athlete means working hard for my teammates and being responsible with my school work.
 
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? I am unique because I study physics and it makes for a rigorous work load but it is worth it.
 
WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? I want to be an electrical engineer. Graduating with a physics degree and then going to get an engineering degree in graduate school sets me up for that.
 
WHAT IS THE BEST CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AT LINFIELD? The best class I have taken at Linfield was Yoga, because it was really relaxing.
 
WHEN NOT COMPETING IN SPORTS OR STUDYING FOR SCHOOL, I LIKE TO SPEND MY FREE TIME…Playing guitar, hanging with my friends and hiking.
 
THE GREATEST LESSON THAT I’VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN…Rent is due every day! So put in the work.
 
WHAT HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT OF YOUR LINFIELD CAREER THUS FAR? The highlight of my Linfield career thus far came during my sophomore year when we were down 4-2 against Whitman and we came back with two outs in the ninth inning with Brian Cromwell hitting a walk-off three-run home run.
