What are you looking forward to most about swimming at Oregon State?
I'm most looking forward to competing at a collegiate level and being a part of something bigger than myself.
How do you spend your time outside of the pool?
I mostly am recovering from practice itself, but if I am not too beat up, maybe I will go out on a hike or exploring outdoors.
What is your first memory of being in the pool?
In all honesty, I can't remember a time where I wasn't in a pool.
Who is your role model?Â
My mom.
Do you have any pre-meet superstitions?
I don't not.
What other sports did you play growing up?
When I was little, I played soccer, basketball and track. When I was about 10, I chose to dedicate all of my time to swimming. Later, during high school, I played water polo from my sophomore to senior year.
What is one hidden talent you have?
I can touch my tongue to my nose.
What song/band is most likely to be playing on your phone?
My favorite bands are X Ambassadors and Weezer.
What is your favorite TV show?
Either 'Shameless' or 'American Horror Story.'
Â
Oregon State will be back in action to host Seattle University and Southwestern Oregon Community College on Nov. 16 at 5 p.m.
