What are your plans after Lafayette?
After graduating from Lafayette, I plan to pursue a Master’s program abroad, hopefully in Italy. My intention is to enroll in a program that integrates my two Bachelor’s degrees, such as international affairs or art conversation.
 
What advice would you give to someone looking to apply to Lafayette?
A piece of advice I would give to someone looking to apply to Lafayette would be to visit campus if you can and try to connect with at least one student. I was very unsure about my college decision until I visited Lafayette for an Official Overnight. After meeting students on the team as well as some of their friends that were not on the team, I knew Lafayette was the place for me. In fact, a memory that stands out is multiple Lafayette students helping me solve a problem on my high school homework assignment, even though we had only met a few hours before.
 
What has been your favorite moment while competing for Lafayette?
My favorite moment while competing for Lafayette was at Lehigh’s Paul Short Run during the 2019 cross country season. I did not know what to expect prior to the race since I am not a long distance runner, but I went into it feeling positive and surprised myself with how I did. The girls on the team were so happy for me and said that my race made them excited for theirs, which made me feel more confident.
