Biography

Favorite place on campus

I love our new athletic facility InfoCision Stadium-Summa Field! As the daughter of a former UA football player, my dad and I are equally proud of the Zips’ new home on campus. The state-of-the-art 30,000 seat stadium also serves as an academic building, as it houses the Sport Science and Wellness Education Department. I look forward to cheering the Zips to victory this fall with new Head Coach Terry Bowden!
