Why CMU?: “I had visited other campuses prior to CMU, each one felt the same. I wasn’t sure what other athletes meant when they said, ‘Once you find your home, you’ll know’. From the moment I stepped on CMU’s campus it felt like home. The environment is what made it stick out to me, and I felt like this was somewhere I could be successful and motivated to succeed.”
