1. What do you love about being a SAAC representative?                                                                                                                                                    Â
SAAC has allowed me to meet and become friendly with coaches and students I never would have met, like the one and only Coach
Chris Vidale! I really like that our group has had the opportunity to meet and talk to other teams' coaches. SAAC has allowed me to voice concerns for my teammates. I also love having Murphy and his light mood at meetings!

The time coach our former coach Larry VanWagner allowed the team to dump freezing cold water on him and then push him in the pool after this last home meet. It was epic!

3. Why did you choose Marist?                                                                                                                                                                                    Â
On my recruiting trip, I realized I clicked with the values, morals, and people on my team and it is beautiful here. I also wanted to go to a different school than my siblings who both attended Fordham.

5. If you had to be stranded on a desert island with another SAAC rep (other than your teammate) who would it be?                                                 Â
Avalon Johnson. We have had many environmental classes together and both enjoy hiking, the outdoors are both familiar with many native flowers of the Northeast! We can both overcome many things together.

6. What are your plans/goals for life after Marist?                                                                                                                                                                Â
As of now I'm planning on working at the NY Department of Environmental Conservation and being a consultant for a year while pursuing a master's degree.        Â
