WHY LINFIELD? I chose to transfer to Linfield because I missed playing football and being a part of a team. Several great friendships originate from being a part of a team and I know the unity and strength this team has which is why I wanted to attend Linfield.
 
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU? Being a student-athlete means putting hard work into your studies and your sport while displaying quality characteristics while setting good examples for others around you.
 
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AND UNIQUE AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? What makes me unique is that I did not play football for my first two years of college. I missed football so much and regretted not coming to Linfield right after high school. I am extremely thrilled to be attending Linfield now.
 
WHAT IS YOUR CAREER FOCUS AND HOW IS LINFIELD HELPING YOU TO ACHIEVE IT?
I really want to work in the sports business industry whether that's with a professional or college team or even a sports company such as Nike. Linfield has a promising sport management program which is another reason I decided to transfer here to help me achieve my career goals.
