HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON? Participating in sports has made me a better person because it helped me become more of an analytical thinker, taught me how to be a leader, and taught me what it meant to commit to something and the lengths I'll have to go to reach my goals.
 
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS? In 10 years, I see myself having figured out what I want to do career wise and helping my community as well as the community my grandfather helped during his time.
 
WHAT’S THE BEST LINFIELD CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN? The best Linfield class I’ve taken so far was circuits and electronics because it’s interesting to learn about circuits and how they work.
