Why she chose Emory?

"I chose Emory because it has the perfect combination of top tier academics, competitive athletics and a strong, connected community. I loved every person I met on the tennis team and coaching staff - they share a drive to compete hard and have a lot of fun along the way. i was drawn to the incredible science and business program at Emory because those are two subjects of great interest to me!"
