What are your plans after Lafayette?
I am not totally sure yet, but I am currently applying for jobs all over the place in hopes of landing one after graduation.

What advice would you give someone looking to apply to Lafayette?
As far as advice, I would definitely try to come to campus for an interview. Not only will you get a good feel for what the campus is like when the student body is here, but a good interview can also greatly help with your application process.

What are you involved in outside of cross country?
Outside of track and field, I am a part of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. The group hosts a ton of events throughout the year that help you get to know your fellow students and faculties really well.
