WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD?
I chose Linfield because of their small school vibe, and the support they offer from the coaches and other faculty members. I see myself achieving the most here at Linfield both in academics and athletics than any other college I was looking into. Plus, the competitiveness and focus on growth of the cross and track teams as well as the coaches was a major factor in my decision.
 
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU?
Being a student-athlete here at Linfield means that I get to represent my school in competitions against others in the conference or state, and show what it means to be a Linfield Wildcat. But it also means that I get to be student first and work towards my degree with the perks of being an athlete here at this prestigious university.
 
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON?
Participating in sports has made me a better person in multiple ways as it has helped me be a better student in school, but it has also helped instill important morals and characteristics such as hard work, leadership, dedication, humility and respect.
 
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS?
In ten years I see myself as an associate at a law firm, working his way up the ladder and a part-time running coach.
