What are your plans after Lafayette?
I will probably either be going to graduate school or at a job that involves both economics and policy application.

What are you involved in outside of track and field?
I am a peer mentor to freshman athletes, a big sister to freshmen in the NIA Sisterhood and Association of Black Collegian.

What is your favorite event in track? Why?
My favorite event has to be the 60-meter hurdles and that really changed for me coming to college because is the one event where I have seen the most growth in myself and is a very telling event for what is to come outdoor.
