I’m a collegiate cross country and track athlete at Dallas Baptist University with a passion for running, education, and working with others. Being a college athlete has been a huge part of my life and has taught me the value of hard work, consistency, and being part of something bigger than myself. I’m currently working toward becoming a high school educator, with the goal of also coaching and helping the next generation of students and athletes grow both in and outside of the classroom. I’ve been fortunate to have coaches, teachers, and others make an impact on my life, and I hope to eventually be that same kind of person for someone else. Whether it’s through running, teaching, or coaching, I want to build genuine relationships with people and make a positive impact wherever I can.
