Why did you choose to come to Wayland and represent the Pioneers? The main reason I came to Wayland is because of Coach Hannan. She has a real passion to see her swimmers be what they want to be, in the pool and out. In other words, she’s my figure mom.

How did you get started swimming and how old were you? I started my freshman year swimming with a club for Jeri Marshburn. Jeri was and always will be a great part of my life and she is the definition of a true coach.

What has been your proudest athletic achievement to date? Nothing will ever be good enough as long as you set the bar high.

What are your goals for the future after college? Start pharmacy school and work with medicine.
