My Goal
I am a dedicated middle-distance runner, competing in cross-country, indoor, and outdoor track events. Athletics has instilled in me a strong sense of discipline, resilience, and ambition. My academic goal is to study psychology while maintaining a high-level balance between sports and education. After going through the recruitment process, I am thrilled to be joining Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, a top-tier university both academically and athletically, in one of the best NCAA conferences. I am excited for this next chapter and eager to contribute to my team while growing as both a student and an athlete.
