Why did you choose Roanoke?: I chose Roanoke because I was born in Salem not too far from the school and my grandparents also live in the area so the city of Roanoke had always been a special place for me.
What do you want to do after Roanoke?: Hopefully find a steady job and I may consider to continue running after college.
