Why Wisconsin?
“I chose the University of Wisconsin because the second I stepped onto campus; Madison felt like home. I was welcomed with open arms by not only my future teammates, but by people who did not even know me. This kindness allowed me to feel comfortable in an unfamiliar environment which is something I tend to struggle with. Wisconsin is a place that allows its students to feel like they can be themselves no matter what, and that is why this school was the place I am choosing to call my home."
