Why did you choose Moravian?

 When I first stepped foot on Moravian’s campus for the first time, I fell in love with the environment and the people here.

What is your major and why?

I am a business major still trying to decide on my concentration. I want to open my own business when I graduate.

What has been your favorite course at Moravian?

Astronomy, because Mr. Becker is the man and the stars really intrigue me.

What are your plans for the future once you finish your degree at Moravian?

I plan to open my own business.

How has being an athlete helped you as a student and in the classroom?

My coaching staff has really helped me stay on task with my work. Also, my professor’s are extremely helpful to me because who doesn’t love a lacrosse player?

What is the hardest part of your sport?

If you are not on your game, the other team will exploit that weakness.

Why do you wear your jersey number?

I like the number 26 but I am a firm believer that it is not the number the player wears that is important but the player who wears that number.

What advice do you have for prospective Moravian College student-athletes?

Do what you are told and don’t talk back.
