Why did you choose Ohio Wesleyan?
I chose to attend Ohio Wesleyan after I visited. Everyone was welcoming and the environment was great. I knew I wanted to play baseball in college as well and Ohio Wesleyan gave me that opportunity.
Why did you choose your major?
Playing sports is about physicality but it is also about psychology. This is something that has always interested me and being able to take classes in high school really helped me in deciding to choose psychology as a major.

I am most proud of my athletic achievement of being able to come here as a freshman and start several games.

I came to school ready to put in the work and make the most of my time to show the team and coaches that I should play.

I bring a good energy to the team every day. I come ready to work regardless of time, place, or situation.

The best pre-event ritual that I do is that when we have home games I usually eat a meal with teammates which helps us relax and focus on the game ahead.
If you could have a super power, what would it be?
