About
I am currently a junior at the University of Health Sciences Center at the University of Oklahoma, studying Communication Sciences and Disorders. I plan to use this major to become a speech-language pathologist. During my time at the University of Oklahoma I have been a Division 1 athlete as a member of the Women's Rowing Team. I have also been a member of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, Dean's Honor Roll, HonorSociety.org, All Big 12 Academic Team, Conference USA Academic Team, and have spent much of my free time doing volunteer work with my teammates!
