Favorite Quote
“I'm at home and at ease on a track that I know not,
And restless and lost on a road that I know.” ~ Henry Lawson
Hobbies
Currently I am on a cycling team and travel all over the Northeast to various races. I also help out with the Triathlon Club on campus. Slowly, very slowly, I am picking off the high peaks so I can become an Adirondack 46'er!
What I like about St. Lawrence
I love the tight knit sense of community between students, faculty, and staff! This is one of my favorite things about SLU. It is what attracted me here as a high school student and is what has kept me here.
