What is your major/minor? Exercise Science

Why did you choose Asbury? I choose Asbury because it had a lacrosse program, a great program for my major, and the proximity to home. The community here at Asbury is something special and I felt like it was my home away from home.

What is your favorite bible verse? Matthew 6:26-28 "look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin."

Who is your favorite athlete? Shaun White

What is your favorite Asbury sports moment?   My favorite would have to be just spending time with my teammates. All the Spring break road trips we go on, the lip sync battles, and the team dinners we have together. My all-time favorite moment was making it to the 2nd team All-Conference my freshman year and having the most goals that year.
