Why did you select Northwest? I enjoyed learning about the community aspect of the school and the personal relationships that are easy to create and grow between students and between students and teachers. In addition, I knew it would be a great place to prepare myself for my career in nursing. I also loved everything I learned about the softball program and it seemed like an amazing team to be a part of.
What is the first nickname you remember having? I’ve had a lot of people call me Ab or Abs.
Who makes the best pizza? Rosati’s Pizza
If you had a week off, where would you like to spend it? With enough money, a one week trip to Hawaii would be ideal, but realistically I would probably spend it relaxing at home or spending a lot of time with friends.
Favorite place on campus: The Green, it’s super pretty and seems pretty peaceful m.
If you could afford any pet, what would it be? A German Shepherd or Husky puppy.
