Why Gallaudet? "Ever since I was young, Ialways looked up to many great deaf adults who taught, coached andmentored me and they were also Gallaudet University alumni. Theyalways told me Gallaudet would be a great fit for me. By the time Iwas 13, I moved to a hearing school due to volleyball and Icompletely forgot about Gallaudet until I was a junior in highschool. One day, I decided to surf Gallaudet's website which led meto the Athletics website and of course the first sport I clicked onwas volleyball. From there my heart told me that Gallaudet is rightschool for me. If it wasn't for GU's athletic website, I wouldn'tbe here."
