Why did you choose the University of Scranton?I loved the people here. Everyone was helpful. Plus the new science building was opening up and I had the option to play lacrosse.
What activities are you involved in at the U?The biggest “activity” I’m involved in is lacrosse.
What are your plans for after graduation?Hopefully I get into dental school or a graduate school in the science field.
That’s awesome! Have you always wanted to be a dentist?I have worked in a dentist office since I was fourteen. I liked it a lot and thought everything about it was cool, even though going to the dentist isn’t the most enjoyable thing in the world.
Is it difficult balancing lacrosse and your school work?Sometimes when we’re in season it gets a little tough, but there’s always someone on the team to help.
What are you going to miss the most when you leave Scranton?I’m definitely going to miss being able to walk a couple seconds to be with the friends I’ve made here.
