1. What made you choose Ole Miss and how did you know it was the right place for you to play soccer?
I chose Ole Miss because I fell in love with everything about it on my official visit. The campus was beautiful. I connected with the coaching staff and really loved all the players I met.
2. What are your goals for the season?
Make it to the SEC Tournament and the NCAA Tournament. It would be incredible to have the best season in Ole Miss soccer history because we have such an impactful senior class.
3. What is your favorite athletic memory at Ole Miss?
I really enjoyed the Rookie Revue on the bus. It was a great bonding experience with my teammates.
4. Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
I hope to be married with a family.
5. What's something most people don't know about you?
As a freshman in high school, I went up for a header and my front tooth went into the back of a girl's head and snapped in half. A teammate found my chipped tooth in the grass. A player from the other team's father had a dental practice down the street and he took me and glued the tooth back together.
6. If you could meet anyone living or dead (or fictional), who would it be and why?
Michael Jordan because he was such an iconic figure in sports.
7. Do you have any superstitions before a game?
I like to get ready pretty early before the game and get into the right mental state of mind, but I'm not too superstitious.
8. If you had a day off from soccer, what would you do?
I would relax and catch up on Netflix and school work.
9. What is your favorite class at Ole Miss and why?
REBS over the summer was super fun because it was with all of the freshman athletes.
