How/Why did you choose Ohio Wesleyan?
I chose Ohio Wesleyan for the strong academics, its importance of community and the sense of family it has.
How/Why did you choose your major?
I have always wanted to be a teacher, and Ohio Wesleyan has a great education department that has guided me into following my dreams and teaching me how to make a difference.
Why did you choose to compete in sports at Ohio Wesleyan?
I chose to compete in sports at Ohio Wesleyan because it was another opportunity to play the sport I love for four more years. The team is like family to me and I am so grateful for all the opportunities that I get from being a part of this team.
What athletic or academic achievement are you most proud of?
I am most proud of getting on the Dean's List both semesters of my freshman year.

I put school work first and spend my free hours in the day getting ahead of work. Typically, I wake up early to get extra work done because I am not as productive at night.

Coach Delaney of the football team (who happens to be my dad) alongside Coach Lobdell, Coach McQuade and every one of my teammates. They all push me to be a better person, student and player. They set high expectations and help me grow in all aspects of life. I am grateful for their guidance and all the amazing opportunities I have gotten so far at OWU.
