Why Simmons?
"I chose Simmons University because of its rigorous and well-respected Doctor of Physical Therapy program, which aligns closely with my academic and career goals. Additionally, the opportunity to compete in collegiate athletics was an important factor in my decision. When I visited the campus and met with future teammates and classmates, I felt an immediate sense of connection and belonging. The supportive community and collaborative environment assured me that Simmons is a place where I can thrive both academically and personally."

Hobbies
As an athlete, many of my hobbies center around physical activity, particularly running and playing lacrosse. I enjoy spending time outdoors, and activities like hiking and trail running allow me to connect with nature and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I also enjoy going to the beach and spending quality time with friends. More recently, I’ve developed a deeper appreciation for baking and reading, which provide a creative and relaxing balance to my active routine.
