Senior
Maxwell, Iowa
Why did you chose Central?
I chose Central because both of my parents attended Central and it felt the most like home, as well. I also liked that it was far enough away that I felt on my own, but not too far that I couldn’t come home if I ever needed anything.
Favorite professor and why?
Dr. Mills and Dr. Goodman because they make math so much easier to understand when dealing with difficult subjects. I also enjoy talking running with the both of them.
Who are your go-to musical artists ?
Linkin Park, Fall Out Boy, and Three Days Grace
You’re majoring in actuarial science because?
I love math and being able to deal with it in real world scenarios is the thing for me.
What animal best represents you and why?
I see myself as a corgi, but the guys on the cross country team think I’m a bulldog.
What is your favorite quote or saying and why do you like it?
“You can’t be afraid to fail.” I like this quote by Michael Jordan because the best way to learn is by failing at something and going about it in a different way until you succeed.
Subway or Jimmy John’s
It’s a tough one, but I would choose Jimmy John’s because I like their bread better.
If you could be an actor/character on any show or movie, what show or movie would it be and why?
Being able to be Barry Allen from the Flash would be awesome, because I would be able to run really fast.
What’s the weirdest nickname you’ve ever had?
Starting my freshman year, Parker Hill just one day started calling me “pop can”. I still don’t know why he calls me that.
What was the last gift you gave someone?
I gave my mother a necklace for her birthday.
Favorite TV Show
Psych or Supernatural
What is it like to run for Coach Dunham?
It’s a lot of fun. He really wants to get the best out of you. He also wants to make you a better person as well.
What’s your favorite part about being a member of Central cross country?
I like the fact that everyone is really close with one another. The friendships that I have made with the guys on the team are some of the strongest relationships that I have had in my entire life.

Be living somewhere in the Midwest with a good job with the possibility of a family.
