Why Texas? "I chose Texas because I fell in in love with the program's value of placing the team before oneself and challenging all aspects of person-hood so that the athletes grow to become the best version of themselves. In addition to the great athletic program, the academics open up endless opportunities for students, as students constantly explore what they love to study and how they can accommodate their passions into a career."
