WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE BVU?

I chose BVU because of the smaller campus feel and the togetherness I felt after being on campus. All of the students and professors helped me feel a sense of belonging and camaraderie that I really enjoyed.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT YOUR SPORT?

I enjoy playing soccer because of the sense of determination and passion I feel while being on the pitch. I also like being able to compete at a high level with a group of teammates that feel like a second family to me.

WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO ACHIEVE AS A BVU STUDENT-ATHLETE?

I hope to bring a positive impact as a BVU athlete by giving 110% everyday. Whether it be on or off the pitch, my goal is to help those around me by striving for individual and team goals.

WHAT IS YOUR GO-TO MEAL FROM THE SERVE?

My go-to meal from the serve is the omelettes!

DESCRIBE YOUR AVERAGE PREGAME RITUAL.

Before games, I will listen to a specific playlist on Spotify and visualize myself making plays on the soccer pitch.

BEST SNACK FOR TEAM TRAVEL ROAD TRIPS?

The best snack for team travel road trips is a honeycrisp apple and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
