Interests: Playing Volleyball, being with family and friends, traveling, going to the lake, and paddle boarding.
Why LC State? LC State was the right fit for me because it was a small college where I felt I could connect with all my professors. I fell in love with the campus, and it’s also the perfect distance from home. I get the freedom but can come home whenever I’m homesick.
Favorite LC State Tradition: During the Spring Student Market (that WEB puts on), there was a flower bouquet-making event, you got to pick out your own flowers and make a really cute bouquet. This was one of my favorite events because I've always wanted to try making bouquets and unlock my inner florist but never have and it was something I want to do again.

Why LC State? I chose LC State because they have a great education program and it was close to home. Not to mention the affordable tuition!
Favorite LC State Event: The shopping cart races were very entertaining, and Trig Watson, the magician, blew my mind.

Why LC State? LC was the perfect distance from home where I could experience life on my own, but if I needed to fall back on family I absolutely could. Also, Snake River and hiking at Hells Gate State Park isn't too far away. LC also offers inexpensive education and small class sizes which means I can get the personalized help I need.
Favorite LC State Tradition: All of the events on campus get people connected, and offer a sense of pride in school sports that is unmatched anywhere else. Homecoming is one of my favorite events to attend and cannot wait for next years events!
