Q&A

Favorite memory at La Roche? "Traveling to Spain & Italy with the woman's soccer team."

Favorite sports moment? "Breaking (Pitt) Greensburg's undefeated streak in our final soccer game of the season."

What has your time at La Roche meant to you? "La Roche has provided me with so many opportunities and experiences to grow not only as an athlete or a student, but as a person. I have learned so much about different cultures and my perspective has grown so much over the four years, I'm sad to go. But at the same time, I'm excited to try new things as the person La Roche has shaped me to be."

What are your future plans? "I have an auditing job lined up in Hawaii once I graduate."

Who has supported you during your time as a student-athlete? "My friends have been the biggest supporters to me over the past four years. Even though I'm so far from home, I never feel down because I have another 'ohana right in PA."
