Why did you chose Central?
I picked Central because of the high-quality education I would be receiving. Being able to compete in track and field to the best of my abilities is also very important to me and the athletic program here allows me to do so. I have made some amazing friends here.
Favorite professor and why?
Professor Barloon, he is very funny and has a lot of cool stories. Great taste in music as well.
You’re majoring in exercise science because?Â
I am fascinated by the way our human bodies work and I plan to study Chiropractic in the future to better the lives of my clients.
Besides athletics, what else are you involved in on campus?
Nothing really
Who are your go-to musical artists?
The list is too long, but Slim Shady is the best rapper to ever do it. RIP Van Halen.
How has attending Central and playing a sport impacted your life?
I have learned a lot from my teammates, coaches, teachers, friends, and classmates. I think I have a couple of lifelong friends here.
Choose your age forever, what age would you choose and why?
70, I am going to be a turnt grandpa and my grandkids are going to want to spend time with me. Old people do not really get blamed for anything.

If you could live anywhere, where would you choose?
Anywhere that has a healthy amount of anarchy, I would want to see a society with little to no rules looks like.
Favorite TV Show
I don’t watch that much TV but Queens Gambit on Netflix is great for all my chess consumers out there.
What is it like to compete for Coach Sturman?
It is very nice to compete for Coach Sturm because I feel he truly cares about how I perform in meets and he pushes me to be my absolute best all the time. Coach Fuller also gets a big shout out for being awesome.

The memories and lessons I will have with me for the rest of my life.
