"Being nominated by the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference for the Division II FAR Fellows Institute is a profound privilege and a chance to further develop key leadership values such as collaboration, communication and emotional intelligence.

"This fellowship will enhance my capacity to advocate for student-athletes on a broader scale, with a particular focus on promoting their academic, athletic and emotional well-being. Drawing from my diverse background in sports, academia, The Marines and business, I aim to bring meaningful perspective while continuing to learn from fellow professionals. I am excited to grow within this impactful community and contribute to its mission of supporting the holistic development and success of our students."
