How has your experience as a student-athlete at Macalester helped shape you as an individual?
Being a student athlete has allowed me to truly experience college through all perspectives. I begin the day as an athlete then switch into a student then morph back into an athlete then back to a student all in 24 hours. Changing focuses each day helps with prioritization and organization, and allows for many different community experiences. 

Why did you choose to attend Macalester?
I chose Mac because it is a place where I can improve both as a student and an athlete. There is a good balance between inclusivity and competitiveness within the swim team, which makes Mac a perfect place to train.
