Q. What is your greatest athletic memory at Eureka College?

One of my greatest athletic memories was scoring my first collegiate goal my sophomore year. As a defender, I don't many opportunities to take shots on goal. It also was a confidence booster for me because I finally realized that I was better than I thought I was.

Q. Describe yourself in one sentence? 

According to coach, I'm not a daisy. I am a dedicated but also go with the flow type of person. 

Q. Aside from playing soccer, what are some of your other passions?

I enjoy hanging out with my friends and sisters in my sorority. I love just being able to relax and talk to them in my free time. 

Q. What do you plan on doing after graduation from Eureka College with your (degree)?

I plan on going to graduate school for chemistry research. 

Q. What is one piece of advice you would give an incoming freshman?

One piece of advice I would give is to try new things. You will never know what you like until you try. I regret not trying to get involved and take chances earlier in my college career.
