If you could relive one moment from your career as a Hartford Hawk, what would it be?
I would relive winning the 2018 America East Tournament. Being the first team in program history to win the regular season title, the tournament title and go to a regional meant a lot to our entire team. It was one of the best experiences that I have ever been a part of.
What was your favorite Hartford Athletics event that you attended as a fan, and why?
My favorite event that I went to as a fan was this years Men's Basketball game against Vermont. It was a great game and great atmosphere to be a part of.
What passions do you hope to pursue after graduation?
I am planning on returning to Hartford for graduate school next year.
What lessons will you take from your time at the University of Hartford?
I have learned a lot during my 4 years at Hartford including being responsible, accountable and part of a team that works together toward a common goal. I am thankful for all of the lessons that I have learned and the experiences that I have had with my teammates and coaches both on and off the field. I am a better player and person than I was before I came to Hartford and I am grateful for that.
Do you have a favorite photo from your time as a student-athlete at the University of Hartford?
The COVID-19 pandemic caused the abrupt end to winter and spring sports for the 2019-20 academic year, as well as the cancelation of several end-of-the-year activities for all student-athletes. The University of Hartford Department of Athletics would like the opportunity to thank our seniors for their dedication through their chosen sport. As a result, HartfordHawks.com will be posting Senior Salutes for each senior throughout the coming weeks.
