Personal:

I am majoring in Biology and minoring in secondary education. After graduating, I plan on becoming a high school biology/science teacher. After I get my master's degree, I want to become a principal.

I choose Saint John's because the class sizes are small and the professors actually know your name. They are very friendly and want you to succeed. Furthermore, it is a beautiful campus to live and train on. The coaches are amazing and the best of the best.

My funniest memories while being on the team are team interviews.

Q & A:

Q: Which coach would you pick to live on a deserted island with and why?

A: Jeremy. Because I feel like in one point of his life he actually has been stranded on a deserted island and he just hasn't told us yet.

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: No number of wiener dogs could defeat me.

Q: Would you rather be the world's greatest racquetball player or have $20 right now?

A: I would not be able to handle the fame, glory, and paparazzi, that comes with being the world's greatest racquetball player. I would not know what to do with the sheer amount of money I would make. So I'd pick $20.
