WHAT IS ONE THING YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO DO BEFORE A MEET? 

Visualize my races with my eyes closed with a timer, and keep doing it until I get the time I want

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT BEING APART OF THIS TEAM? 

Its full of kids I've competed against in the past so there was already a sense of community early on.

WHY SPOKANE COLLEGES?

I get to stay in town, the coaching staff is extremely talented, the team is super good, and I'll be spending way less money compared to what other schools were offering me.

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS?

Being a private practicing therapist.

WHO IS ONE OF YOUR ROLE MODELS?

My high school coach, Brandon Blize who took me from one of the worst hurdlers in the state, to a two time state champ.

WHAT HOBBIES OR INTERESTS DO YOU HAVE OUTSIDE OF YOUR SPORT?

Hanging out with friends, writing, and video games.

HOW HAS BEING AN ATHLETE AT SPOKANE COLLEGES SHAPED YOUR PERSONAL AND ACADEMIC LIFE? 

Theres no hand holding, nobody is accountable for me but myself. If I decide to skip practice or classes, it’s on me
