Why she chose American: "I chose American because of its location, diversity, and challenging curriculum which encourages students to think globally and take risks to make positive changes in the world. On the athletic side, I chose American because of the coaching staff. I clicked right away with the coaches and was impressed with how supportive and invested they are in their players, both on and off the field. I am eager to grow as a scholar-athlete at American."
