I knew I wanted to be a Bluejay when I first visited Creighton and saw the high standards in athletics and education.
Interesting Fact About Yourself...I race in autocrosses with my family.
Running Superstition...I think wearing Goodrs sunglasses makes you faster.
Favorite Running Spot... I like running at 11 Mile Canyon in Lake George,Co.
If I could go on a run with any three people, living or dead, it would be Hope, Cassidy, and Kennedy.
When I am not running, I am spending time with friends.
Favorite Movie...The Princess Bride
Favorite Food...Fruit of the Forest Pie
