I chose Amherst because of its rich diversity and inclusive campus environment. The school offers a strong balance between academics and athletics, which was very important to me. I am excited about my first season with the women's soccer team. They've won the NESCAC championship in the last two years, and it's such an honor to be a part of this talented group as we strive for another championship this year. Millbrook really prepared me for the time management required at college, especially in balancing sports, coursework, and extracurricular activities. I will miss the crazy bus rides to and from soccer and basketball games with the Millbrook girls, and I will also miss Ms. Havard's English class.
