WHAT SPARKED YOUR INTEREST IN THE RALPHIE PROGRAM?
My interest in the Ralphie Program was sparked during a tour of CU my senior year of high school, after the tour guide gave a brief intro about the program and its history. Then seeing Ralphie run and hype up the crowd at the Rocky Mountain Showdown before we blew out CSU solidified my desire to become a Handler.
WHAT DOES RALPHIE MEAN TO YOU?
To me Ralphie represents CU’s Pride, Strength, and Tradition as she unites hundreds of thousands of students, fans, and alumni across University and the community.
WHAT'S THE HARDEST PART OF BEING A RALPHIE HANDLER?
Waking up early in the morning to go run sprints.
WHAT'S THE BEST PART OF BEING A RALPHIE HANDLER?
The best part of being a Ralphie Handler is having the honor of representing such an amazing school and community with a team of highly motivated and like-minded individuals. Also playing with Ralphie at her ranch.
WHAT'S ONE THING THAT SURPRISES PEOPLE THE MOST WHEN THEY ASK YOU ABOUT BEING A
RALPHIE HANDLER?
The biggest thing is probably the time commitment spread throughout workouts, practice, and everything in between for being ready on gameday.
WHAT'S ONE THING ABOUT RALPHIE THAT SURPRISED YOU THE MOST AFTER BECOMING A
RALPHIE HANDLER?
The thing that surprised me the most was the relationship that you develop with Ralphie overtime. Gaining that trust is special and it’s cool to see once she starts vibing with you.
WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES?
I like hiking, fishing, camping, playing video games, taking pictures, and spending quality time with my family and friends.
