Plans
Volunteering to help the underprivileged has driven my desire to become an architect and design beautiful, affordable living spaces for people in need through innovative designs and environmentally friendly materials. This fall, I will study architecture and compete in DI Track and Field at the University of Notre Dame, with sights set on competing in Women’s Decathlon in the Olympics. My commitment to community will grow stronger with leadership positions in USATF and volunteer youth coaching.
