What made you choose Wesley?
I chose Wesley because coming from a small town such as Cape May, Wesley College seemed like a comfortable change. It’s far enough to get away from home, but close enough to go home if I needed.
Tell us an interesting fact about yourself?
I’m like a walking holiday!
Did you play any other sports in high school? If so tell us more about your experience with that sport?
I played lacrosse three out of the four years I was in high school. I also attempted indoor track my freshman year and basketball my junior year, but those didn’t really go as planned.
What are you thinking about or planning on majoring in?
Elementary Education
What favorite song is on the IPOD?
It’s too hard to narrow it down to a few. I love everything on there.
Who is your favorite soccer player in the world?
Cristiano Ronaldo
What club team did you play just before arriving at Wesley?
Woodstown Eclipse – New Jersey
What is your favorite motivational quote?
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
What is your favorite sports movie?
She’s the Man
What do you see yourself doing 10 years from now?
10 years from now I will hopefully be teaching, and beginning to settle down.
Who is your biggest hero? Why?
My parents are my hero’s. They are my inspiration and motivation to achieve and succeed in life.
What were you most excited about for your first college season?
I was excited to be playing college in soccer, because it’s a new experience. A few of the girls I grew up playing with are also attending Wesley so I was definitely looking forward to playing with them throughout college.
