Q: Why did you choose the Tribe?
I chose the tribe because I fell in love with the team atmosphere, and all of
the girls that were a part of it. The combination of a great school
academically and athletically was a key factor also.
Q: Describe a moment when you felt the most Tribe pride...
On my official visit I was able to
watch my future Tribe team compete. They looked like they were having a blast
during the competition and it made me want to go out and join them. It was just
very exciting to watch.
Q: Take us through your pre-game mental preparation routine:
Before I am about to compete, I
like to visualize myself hitting the entire routine, skill by skill
Q: What are some community activities you or your team have done?
I am an incoming freshman, so I am not entirely sure
what community activities my team has participated in, but this September we
are volunteering at the Patriot Triathlon. In October, we are planning on
participating in the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes, and in November we are
volunteering at the Mayflower Marathon.
Q: What is your intended or declared major and why?
I plan on Double Majoring in Kinesiology and
Neuroscience. I want to ultimately go to Med-School, to work towards becoming
some kind of a doctor.

when I graduate, but I know I want to be in the medical field, doing something
where I can help people.
Q: If you could play another sport at W&M what would it be and
why?
If I could play another sport at W&M it would have to
be lacrosse. It is such a fun game to watch, and it seems really challenging.
Q: Favorite team tradition/activity and why?
I have not participated in
any traditions or activities yet, but my team does an annual ropes course,
which seems like a lot of fun.
Q: Which teammate will have the most interesting job in 10 years
and why?
Allie Marko or Jen Ware will probably have the most interesting jobs in 10
years because they are both double majors in kinesiology and neuroscience, so
they have a lot of different job possibilities.

A monkey, because I
am outgoing and love to be around other people.

visit.
