History

Why SCU?
As soon as I stepped on campus, I just had a feeling that Santa Clara was the place for me. The campus is incredible and felt like home, and the year-round good weather seemed like it would be a nice change from Maine's chilly winters.

Favorite Bronco memory so far?
Saturday morning breakfast after practice with my team in Benson or at Cramer's. A big breakfast with great company is the best way to unwind after a tough practice and I miss those moments now that I'm home.

Biggest inspiration?
My mom. She's incredibly strong and always has my back.

Favorite hobby?
Camping

First celebrity crush?
Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones.

If you could eat only one food item for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Eggs.

Two truths and a lie.*

"I spent a month in Thailand last summer" is the lie.*
