Student-Athlete Q&A
What made Liberty University the right place for you to attend college/compete at the collegiate level?
Liberty wasn't a school I was thinking about going to until I had my visit and absolutely loved the team culture, the coaches, and of course the campus. Everyone was so welcoming and put God first above all else and that's the most important thing.
Who in your life inspires you and why are they such an inspiration?
My parents, because they work so hard to provide for our family and endlessly support me and lift me up. They are always inspiring me to be the best version of myself.
What is your most memorable athletic moment/accomplishment?
Going to London and competing in the AP race with the US NCSA team.
Do you have any relatives who are playing or have played college or professional sports? (Names, relation to you, what/where they played)?
My dad played college basketball.
What is your favorite hobby outside of athletics?
I love boating with my family.
