FAST FACTS:

Why did you choose Missouri?

I absolutely love this team and the positive energy that comes with it. The nursing school is one of the best in the country and I love the campus during springtime. Jamie is an awesome coach, and the facility is amazing as well.

How has the program at Mizzou made you a better swimmer?

Since I have become a Mizzou diver, I have grown in so many ways. Jamie is a great coach and my teammates are always supportive and motivational. I love being able to dive in a state of the art facility and dryland area, too.

What is your best memory with the team?

Getting to go back to Texas for Conference and Zones.
