Personal:
My best moment so far in Johnnie Track and Field is qualifying for the MIAC Indoor Championship and breaking the freshman record.
I am majoring in Integrative Sciences with a pre-med focus. My personal goals within my major are to get the degree and go to graduate school. My career goals and post graduation plans are to go to Medical school or some graduate school, be able to travel and see some stuff. I would love to be able to give back somehow and coach a sports team.
I learned about SJU from a group of Alumni in my hometown and I fell in love with it the first time I took a visit. To me, it feels like home, and that is a quality that not many other schools have. I heard about it by word of mouth and I found that it is even better than it was described.
The funniest moments while on the team are the discussions we have any day at practice. From talking about politics, to what elements can make up life other than Carbon.
Q & A:
Q: Which coach would you pick to live on a deserted island with and why?
A: Initially, I thought the smart choice depended on which coach I could take in a fight if we were starving and push came to shove. Then, realizing that Jeremy would kick my butt, I changed my mind. I would still choose Jeremy because he is a jack of all trades. Also he would grow an awesome "Castaway" beard that I’d like to see.
Q: If you were in the coliseum and were challenged to fight wiener dogs, what is the highest number of wiener dogs you could defeat?
A: It depends on how they would be release. If they attack single file, I can go until you run out of dogs. If they attack all 360 degrees, maybe about 50.
Q: Would you rather be the world's greatest racquetball player or have $20 right now?
A: What I always say is: Give a man $20, feed him for a day. Give a man the talent of racquetball, feed him for two days.
