Why she chose Emory?

"I chose Emory because I knew it was a place full of opportunities and would prepare me extremely well for life after college, be it job searching or further education.  I also loved how it’s the perfect, healthy balance between academics and athletics, where we could succeed both athletically and academically while still enjoying our years at college."
