Biography

Why I chose Colby:  Colby's small class sizes and location played a large role in my decision to come here. I wanted a supportive environment that would allow me to challenge myself by pushing my limits in and out of the classroom. At Colby I have found just that.

Major:  Economics (financial markets), Spanish

What is your Favorite Part of the Athletic Center: The Squash Courts

Favorite Place on Campus: Bobs

Most Memorable Team Experience: After coming back from a match against Hamilton when I was a freshman, we ran into a small snowstorm. Because the match had been about a seven hour drive away, I think it added around three or four hours to our trip, meaning that we got back in the early hours of the morning. At first everyone was really bummed, but when we realized there was really nothing that could be done, we decided to enjoy the time we had with each other. That bus ride became one of the most memorable experiences of the entire season.

Favorite Professional Athlete:  Lionel Messi

Favorite Pre-Game Meal/Snack:  Blue Gatorade

Internship/Work Experience:  Overland Summers Trip Leader (Summer 2024)

Plans After Colby:  I plan to work in consulting after graduating from Colby.
