WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because of its historic winning tradition on the field and its high academic prowess off of the field. Along with knowing that I’ll be going to college having a large support system of people to help me achieve success in sport and in the classroom. The town of McMinnville itself reminds me of my small town which will make it feel like I’m still home.
 
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? To me being a student-athlete means I need to be able to manage my school work and sport activities as best, I can to be successful in college. I know no matter what happens in college, academics must always come first. Along with that I have the chance to improve my work ethic knowing that there will be times where I am short on time to get class work done.
 
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? I know that as a student-athlete I will work hard in both areas of being a student-athlete. Hard work has gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life. I only plan on using that work ethic to better myself on and off the field.
 
WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? I plan on hopefully becoming a strength & conditioning coach as it has always been a passion of mine to coach the next generation and combine that with my love for weightlifting. I believe with getting a bachelor’s in exercise science I can then apply for coaching jobs at other universities or organizations around the country.
