Biography

Major: Philosophy with a Concentration in "Constant Evaluationism"

Why I Chose Colby: "I wanted to work with Coach Cusano and break as many of Colby's records as possible."

Favorite Place on Campus: "As many people may know, Maine is quite cold. Not being a lover of cold weather, I try to seek out the warmest places on campus during the chilly winter months. On the way to practice each morning, Sage Bailin, my bestfriend and teammate, and I took a shortcut through the senior apartment complex to get to his car. The area between the two sets of front doors to the building, albeit only around 20 square feet, is undoubtedly one of the warmest places on campus. I try to shelter there for as long as possible before venturing back out to brave the elements."

Most Memorable Team Experience: "Getting DQed for celebrating too hard after crushing Bates in the 4x400 relay in 2018."

Plans After Colby: "I would like to do a Graduate Assistant-ship somewhere to jump start my coaching career and use my last year of eligibility."
