Why Penn? "I chose Penn because it offered me the opportunity to play high-level Division 1 soccer at one of the best academic schools in the country. Not only will I be able to pursue a major in biology, but I will also be able to continue developing in a sport that has been a part of my life for as long as a I can remember. After meeting the coaching staff and team, I could see that their goals and expectations clearly aligned with the qualities that I was looking for in a D1 program. I also know that while at Penn I will be able to gain connections both on the field and in the classroom that will help me in any career path I choose to pursue in the future."
