WHY LINFIELD? I chose to attend Linfield because I knew it was a place that would push me to become the best person I can be on and off the field. Linfield will allow me to grow and give the best opportunity to further my education and continue playing the game I love.
 
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? Being a student-athlete means a lot to me because it has always been one of my dreams to play college football. Being able to be a student-athlete at one of the best Division III schools in the nation is also very special and means a lot to me.
 
WHAT’S THE BEST LINFIELD CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AND WHY? The best class I have taken at Linfield so far is Organizational Behavioral Management. I enjoyed taking this class because the course material was insightful and will be useful throughout my career.
 
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? My work ethic and willingness to do whatever it takes to help my team win, are two of my qualities that make me a unique athlete.
 
WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEST INSPRIATION IN YOUR LIFE? WHY HAVE THEY BEEN SO INFLUENTIAL? My mom has been one of the greatest inspiration in my life. Her selflessness and genuine care for other is something I aspire to be more like everyday. She inspires me to be a better person and is someone I look up to.
 
THE GREATEST PRINCIPLE OR LESS ON THAT I’VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN… One lesson I have learned well competing in athletics at Linfield is that everyone has an important role to the team. Whether someone is the waterboy or an All-American they both play a role on the team and they are both are just as important to the team and the team's success.
 
AS A LINFIELD STUDENT-ATHLETE, MY GOALS INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY FOR MY TEAM ARE… As a Linfield-Student Athlete my individually goal is to be the best athlete and football player I can be and collectively for my team our goal is to win a National Championship.
 
WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? Football is one of my passions and Linfield offers classes and majors like sport management that will allow me to continue to have football be a part of my life even if it is not playing on the field.
