I chose MIT because I have always loved STEM and was driven to push myself academically. MIT also has a lot of wonderful travel, internship, and research opportunities.

I think you should just trust that everything will work out. I had many doubts throughout the process and ended up at not only the school of my dreams but also the perfect fit for me.

My favorite part of Philly Blast Lacrosse was meeting new people and getting to play and have fun with some of the top lacrosse players of my year.

I was considering Hamilton and Harvey Mudd for lacrosse seriously.

Lacrosse: Varsity Captain Senior year, PA state championships in 2017, Friends of Radnor Lacrosse Award. Other: National Honors Society, Honor Award, Cornell Award, Started Club Change for Children, Captain of Soccer

Just want to thank Philly Blast for giving me this great opportunity!
