WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because it felt like home to me. It was the best option for me to grow as a student and as an athlete. Linfield is a place where I can better myself for life after graduation and it gave me the opportunity to play a college sport as well as the opportunity to learn in the classroom and prepare for a life after college.
 
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? It means that I am fortunate enough to play the sport I love and attend a great institution. Being a student-athlete is hard work, but it proves to myself that I can accomplish anything if I work hard.
 
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? I am from Boise, Idaho. McMinnville is not that close to home so it has allowed me to bring in a unique outlook on things.
 
WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? I am working to become a public accountant after graduation. I have been able to take classes to help me accomplish this. On top of this I have met many great people in the industry through my Linfield connections.
 
WHEN NOT COMPETING IN SPORTS OR STUDYING FOR SCHOOL, I LIKE TO SPEND MY FREE TIME…Hanging out with my friends, being outside, watching baseball and other sports.
 
THE GREATEST LESSON THAT I’VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN…Work ethic defines a person and leads to major success.
 
WHAT HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT OF YOUR LINFIELD CAREER THUS FAR? The highlight of my Linfield career thus far has been being able to play with my best friends and competing at the college level.
