Biography

Why Niagara?
“I thought that Niagara had a beautiful campus and a great science program. I was originally on the fence between Niagara and Canisius; what changed my take on it was when I did an overnight with some of the girls on the Cross Country team. I saw how great and happy they were together and I felt like I fit with them. It helped that Coach Kloiber is cool and passionate about what she does, too. All of these great experiences within the span of just two days helped me decide that I wanted to spend the next four years of my life at Niagara University!”
