GETTING TO KNOW JAMIE
Nickname: Jim/ Jimmy / Jimbo
Why did you choose Lehigh? I fell in love with the beauty of the campus, specifically the mountains at goodman and the old academic buildings. On top of the aesthetic, as soon as I met Coach Deb I knew that it would be a good fit because she was so kind and incredibly easy to talk to. Lehigh also was perfect for my major because it is one of the only schools in the US that has its own department of international relations. All in all, it was a great fit academically and athletically and it made me feel like home.
What’s your favorite thing about Lehigh? I love how our entire team feels like a family. We work so well together and we all get along and it’s a great environment to be a part of.
Thoughts on Lehigh Coaching Staff (Coach Matt Utesch and/or others): Coach Deb is the most detail-oriented and passionate coach that I have ever met. She cares about each and every one of her athletes, no matter if it's running or life-related. I can rely on her for literally anything and I know she will be there for me.
Major & Why: Double: International Relations and Spanish and Hispanic Studies: I chose to double major because of the deep cultural elements that intrigued me. Someday I want to be able to travel the world and speak other languages fluently and learn about other cultures.
