WHY LINFIELD? I chose Linfield because I attended an ID camp hosted by the team and it felt like home.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? Being a student-athlete means developing life skills to help me in the classroom and on the field.

WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? I am unique because I have had two knee surgeries.

WHAT IS THE BEST CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AT LINFIELD? My favorite class at Linfield was Principles of Biology because I left the class with more questions than answers. It made me curious about all of the unknowns that exist in the science community, which kept me engaged in the concepts we learned.
