What are your goals for 2013?
I hope to establish a solid relationship with my future CCU cross country friends and teammates while maintaining a relationship with my Rock Canyon family. I am looking forward to a successful integration into the CCU cross country program and running at a whole new level in the college athletics environment. I am very excited about becoming part of the CCU community and family.

Favorite Workout...
My favorite workout is either short, fast sprint workouts (such as 200 meter repeats) or long distance running (such as a 10-mile run).

What do you hope to accomplish at CCU?
I desire to strengthen my relationship with Christ through a strong and successful education in Business and Pre-Law, cross country running, and participation in healthy Christian community.

Favorite Running Memory...
My favorite running memory cannot be decided upon. A standout meet was the Colorado cross country state meet my junior year. Just before the start, a squadron of air force fighter jets performed a low flyover. My favorite trip would be either our cross country team's trip to Arizona my senior year for the Nike Cross Southwest National Regionals meet or our track team's trip to California my senior year for the California Relays. Both included unforgettable team bonding and great performances.

Favorite Food and Movie…
My favorite food would be a medium-rare grilled beef filet with tarragon butter, or Maytag blue cheese with water crackers. My favorite movie is a tough decision. I think a list of outstanding movies I like is more appropriate: titles such as Gone With the Wind, Big Country, Saving Private Ryan, Star Wars (any of them), Lord of the Rings (any of them), are at the top, but there are more I know I'm forgetting.
