Biography

PERSONAL INFORMATION
Double majoring in psychology and sociology.
 
WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because this university feels like home to me. Both of my parents went here, and now my younger brother is going into his freshman year here. I couldn't imagine being anywhere else!
 
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? Being a student-athlete takes dedication and passion. At Linfield we're all family, so when you step onto that field you are representing so much more than just a sport, you stand for the incredible history Linfield carries with it, and the future ahead.
 
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE??I've only done cheer for two years! Before cheering at Linfield, I classically trained in ballet for 16 years!
 
WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? I hope to go to grad school to focus on clinical psychology after my time here at Linfield. Linfield is the perfect place for me to prepare for my graduate school education! I can get involved in undergraduate research, and the professors I've had the privilege to work with so far have been absolutely incredible and have made me feel ready to enter the psychology field out of Linfield.
