On-campus activities: I’m on the golf team here so that takes up most of my time during the fall and the spring. I am also on the Student Athlete Advisory Committee and a member of EcoLions. I love meeting new people so I’m always trying to find ways to get involved around campus.
Off-campus activities: Spending time with family. I know that I wouldn’t be here without their support, and I am very grateful for everything they have done for me. I’m also extremely lucky that golf allows me to travel all over the country. I love spending time in the South. After all, what’s nicer than a southern belle?
Summer plans: Livin’ the Dream playing golf. What guy wouldn’t want to spend his summer days on the course?

Favorite off-campus location: Yankee Stadium. I’m a huge fan so any girl that is into baseball is a keeper in my books.

HamDel decides to name a sandwich after you (what’s it called and what’s in it): The Mayor. Chicken Cutlet, American cheese, Avocado, chipotle mayo and honey bacon. A little bit of sweet and a little bit of heat.
