Growing Up:

I grew up with my mom and two sisters in Federal Way, WA. I have a sister that is 22 and a sister that is 16. I went to Mount Rainier High School as a freshman and I graduated from Federal Way High School in 2011.

Why WSU?

I have always known if I went to any school in Washington it would be Washington State University and it is close enough to go go home to see my mom and sisters yet far enough to not have to see them everyday.

My Fondest Memory

The first day of Alive! I was really surprised to see the campus; it looked nothing like I thought it would I thought I had made a mistake by choosing to come to this school, but after Alive! I was excited to come back Fall semester of 2011.

Favorite Place to Study

I like to study in the library looking over the practice football fields.
