Before Denver: Member of SLAP (Swim Like A Pro) High Performance Triathlon team and Velobrew Cycling … Earned All-American status from USA Triathlon in 2022 and 2023 … Lettered in swimming, track and cross county at The Bolles School and was the team’s cross country MVP in 2022 … Won the 2024 USA Cycling Junior Cup Series and was the Florida state 2023 time trial champion and 2022 road race champion in cycling.
Personal: Has an older brother … Father played club volleyball at the University of Florida and went to play several events on the AVP beach tour (Association of Volleyball Professionals) … Graduated high school from The Bolles School in 2026 … Undeclared going into DU but interested in psychology, marketing and math … Enjoys traveling and outdoor activities … Favorite experiences include lobster diving in the Florida Keys, biking Mount Lemmon in Arizona, hiking the Fourth of July Trail in Colorado and exploring Germany and Greece.
Why DU: “I chose the University of Denver because it offers a strong academic environment, an awesome balance of big city/outdoors activities and a team culture that feels like a true community. DU’s quarter system really appeals to me because it gives me the flexibility to explore different areas of study and find the major that fits me best while still staying on track academically. I’m starting as an Exploratory Studies student, and I like that DU has a structured program that encourages curiosity.
“On the athletic side, DU stood out to me because the triathlon team is competitive and ambitious yet still supportive. It’s a great environment to train hard and have fun doing it. I love that the team is growing and that I have the chance to represent a team that’s building something special. Plus, there are mountains nearby. Denver’s location is a cyclist's dream come true, but it also offers the balance of city life and strong academics that I wanted.”
