WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because of the opportunity to both play sports. Along with to get a great academics alongside it. In addition to liking the smaller campus and having it feel like home. Lastly the ability to connect with the professor and the opportunities for networking within a small community.
 
WHAT IS NEXT AFTER LINFIELD? My career focus is on accounting and eventually working in a CPA firm. Linfield has helped me by connecting me with events that are going to help me network in my professional field. Along with having professor knowing people outside of Linfield and networking through them. Finally setting me up with the right tools in order to work towards my CPA exam after graduation.
 
WHAT IS THE BEST CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AT LINFIELD? The best class I have taken at Linfield was International Management, because the professor made the class very interesting and also interactive. In addition, the professor knew a lot about the information he was teaching us and had real life experience in the field he was talking about and he brought he guest speakers from different industries and professions.
 
WHEN NOT COMPETING IN SPORTS OR STUDYING FOR SCHOOL, I LIKE TO SPEND MY FREE TIME…Hanging out with friends and family. Since I am not very far from home, I also like to hang out with my dog whenever I am home.
 
THE GREATEST LESSON THAT I’VE LEARNED WHILE COMPETING IN ATHLETICS AT LINFIELD HAS BEEN…When you put in the hard work and dedication into something, the results will eventually follow.
 
WHAT HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT OF YOUR LINFIELD CAREER THUS FAR? The highlight of my Linfield athletic career was going on the spring break trip to Virginia during my freshman year. I scored my first career goal and assist during that trip.
