WHY TOLEDO?
I chose to attend the University of Toledo because of the great academic and athletic opportunities offered. I am planning to become an American Sign Language Interpreter and studying Disability Studies and UToledo is a great place for me to start. Aside from that, playing Division 1 softball has been a goal of mine for a long time and I am so grateful to have the ability to do so at the University of Toledo. I love the coaching staff, team, and campus. It's really the perfect fit for me in all aspects.
