Q: What is your major?
 
A
: I am a Communication: Interpersonal Relations major and a Spanish minor.
 
Q: What (if any) plans do you have after graduation?
 
A
: I hope to get a job in Event Planning or Public Relations.  I am looking at both non-profit and corporate organizations around the country, though I hope to stay on the East coast for a while.
 
Q: Why did you choose to run track at Wheaton?
 

A: Coming into Wheaton my freshmen year I was not planning on participating on a sports team. I played three sports throughout high school and I was burnt out, so I wanted to focus on my academics in college.  However, I deeply missed being on a sports team; having structure in my day, a community of friends, an outlet for my competitive side, and motivation to stay in shape. Through friends and my future coach I was encouraged to join track. It was clear that Lord had other plans for me my freshmen year and it has been such a blessing!
 
Q: What do you enjoy most about Wheaton?
 
A
: I love the people at Wheaton; the staff, professors, coaches, and most of all friends. I have found friends that will last a lifetime.
 
Q: What is your favorite track memory so far in your time at Wheaton?
 
A
: Cheering for the women’s 4x4 relay at Outdoor Conference last year in the rain and beating North Central’s team!
