WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because I had heard great things about this school from word of mouth and wanted to further my education at a good school. 
 
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU? Being a student-athlete is more than just playing your sport. You are representing a school at a collegiate level, and it means a lot to be able to do that. I take pride in being a student-athlete at Linfield because I am able to create relationships with people on the team (as well as coach) and grow with them. 
 
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON? Participating in sports has taught me the importance of comradery in a team, how to deal with people on your team that may not think the same as you, competition, and many more lessons/skills. 
 
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS? To be honest I don't know. I've learned that a lot can happen in one year and that life is crazy. But to answer the question, somewhere along the lines of having a family and a full-time job but also keeping active (still playing tennis or maybe have picked up a different hobby).
 
WHAT’S THE BEST LINFIELD CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AND WHY? Public health Planning and Evaluation. Because the professor is doing a great job helping us prepare for after college.
 
WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEST INSPIRATION IN YOUR LIFE? My dad has taught me a lot of life lessons.
 
THE GREATEST PRINCIPLE OR LESSON THAT I’VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN… Don't leave your teammates behind. Work together and put your pride aside.
 
AS A LINFIELD STUDENT ATHLETE, MY GOALS INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY FOR MY TEAM ARE… Individually my goals are to compete to the best of my abilities every match. For my team I want to win the conference.
