On attending Rensselaer: "I chose to attend RPI since it offered a unique experience to play lacrosse while obtaining an engineering education. The reputation of RPI as being a fantastic engineering school drew me in, and it was hard to pass off since I was aware that practically all seniors obtain very good internships and job positions upon graduation. I knew my future would be secure by going to RPI, and I would get to pursue a career in engineering while playing the sport I love." - July 2019

"RPI was the perfect fit between athletics and academics, where I would be allowed to play for a top D3 lacrosse team as well as study engineering. In addition, the students at RPI are very welcoming, and the team values were very appealing to me." - June 2020
