WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD? I first attended the basketball’s team elite camp as a high school freshman. The players and coaches made a very positive impression on me.
 
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU? Every time I step on the court, it is an honor to represent Linfield and all of the dedicated student-athletes who have preceded me.
 
WHAT’S THE BEST CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AT LINFIELD? Media Ethics--the complexity and significance of the subject matter.
 
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON? Participating in sports has opened up many opportunities for me to be involved in developing younger players. By volunteering for youth basketball camps, coaching teams, conducting one-on-one training, and mentoring players off the court, I have been able to apply and pay forward the work ethic, teamwork, and leadership skills I have learned from the game.
 
WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEST INSPIRATION IN YOUR LIFE? WHY HAVE THEY BEEN SO INFLUENTIAL? My parents--they taught me the importance of practicing inclusive leadership, showing compassion for others, and supporting diversity.
