PERSONAL
Studying nutritional physiology and biochemistry at Penn State…Hobbies include video games, hunting, fishing, card collecting, and lifting…Chose Penn State because “Penn State is an honorable program with a deep history of elite shot putters. It has a high standard for academics that will aid me in applying for graduate school. Also, I have deep family roots in the area. My grandfather grew up 20 minutes outside State College so it feels just like home to be here.”
