Getting to know Madeline

My favorite athletic moment was: My junior year I had a really bad fall for my own personal reasons and so I didn't finish the last three races leading up to the divisional championship. At that race I knew that I had to give it my all and had to really break through a wall and fight the urge to give up. I ended up placing even higher than the year before and qualifying for the state championship. My dad gave me a big bear hug when I finished and told me that I was his hero.

The thing that attracted me to Brandeis was: I was really inspired by how open minded and passionate everyone was.

I want to study abroad in:  a Spanish speaking country because I love Spanish culture and I need to get better at speaking!

My favorite TV show is: Bones was my favorite tv show because the main character is a super strong and brilliant female scientist that reminds me a lot of my mom.
