Why Minnesota: "Once we moved back to Minnesota in 2013, I loved going to the Gophers gymnastics, hockey, football, and basketball games! After my first swim meet at the Jean K. Freeman aquatic center, I told my club coaches I was going to swim here in college and here I am! The moment I stepped foot on campus for my official visit, I knew it was the place I wanted to be. Growing up so close made campus feel like a second home and I am so excited to be a part of the Gopher family!"
