Tiger Tidbit: I came to Doane to play baseball and to leave my hometown as I sought out more opportunities out of state. One thing I enjoy about Doane is the people you meet here as everyone tends to be super polite and welcoming. One last thing I enjoy about Doane was that it has helped me grow as a person.

How I Spend My Free Time: In my free time you can find me outside doing just about anything from hiking or fishing to hammocking by the lake on a hot day.
Tiger Tidbit: What keeps me wanting to come back to Doane each year are the great people that make up the students and faculty/staff of the university. At Doane, I have only met people who genuinely want to be involved with the school and with helping me succeed in all of my endeavors. It's such a personal experience.
