Sophomore
Normal, Illinois

Why Central?  

Coming to Central gave me the chance to experience life outside of Illinois as well as giving me the opportunity to play basketball. Central also feels like a home away from home as soon as you step on campus.

Favorite professor and why?

Joshua Vis simply because he is the most stylish professor.

In your iPod?

Drake, Bryson Tiller, Ed Sheeran, Chance the rapper, and many more artists. I prefer slower softer music, but will listen to almost anything.

You’re majoring in psychology because?

I'm majoring in psychology because the way humans think and act has always interested me.

How many pairs of shoes do you own?

Way too many, but this year I only have 10 pair on campus.

Favorite Superhero?

-Batman, because he is the only hero who does not have any super powers, or is from another galaxy.

Best thing about Pella

The best thing about Pella is how quiet and small the town is. Coming from a city I appreciate that there is never any traffic in Pella, or that you don't hear trains and car horns all day long.

If someone was to serenade you, what song would you most like them to sing?

I would want them to sing "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran, but I want them to go all out so they would have to properly set the atmosphere.(Candles, Proper lighting,etc.)

Teammate most likely to have eaten themselves into a food coma over the holidays

Pete Walker

Favorite NBA player

Chris Paul from the Los Angeles Clippers

Favorite TV Show

Power

The one thing people don’t about Coach Douma

Coach drinks about five big gulps a day filled with Mountain Dew

Why do you love Central basketball?

I love Central basketball because of how hard everyone works to make this program the best it can be, and also how there is a family bond between the players and coaches.

“Ten years from now I’ll...”

I still have two and a half more years at central to enjoy! I don't like thinking about the future much.

Favorite food from Central Market

My favorite food from Central Market is easily the brisket and loaded potatoes.

Bucket list

Sky dive, travel through all fifty states, visit Italy, go to an NBA Finals game, Watch the Lions win a Super 
Bowl, and win an Iowa Conference championship!
