WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD? Linfield has always been my dream school. Linfield not only has an amazing nursing program but an amazing and welcoming environment. I have also heard great stories about their dance team which is why I wanted to participate in dance as well.
 
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU? Being a student-athlete to me means being able to adjust to a fixed schedule and having communication with teachers and coaches about my schedule. It’s important that I not only prioritize school but also sports. Having a balance with my schedule is very helpful in the long run.
 
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON? It has made me more open to new journeys and making long lasting friendships with my teammates.
 
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS? I see myself being a travel nurse, helping people around the world as much as I can.
