Why Paul Smith’s? It was totally unlike any other college that I looked at. The landscape and ‘vibe’ of the campus reminded me of summer camp as a kid, which I absolutely loved.

Ran cross country for 5 years, on the varsity ‘B’ team for 4 of those years... Competed in the 110m and 400m hurdles in senior year, being selected to compete in sectional competition, and finishing 13^th overall.

Carson was awarded the rank of Eagle Scout from Troop 90 in Chili, NY, in the spring of 2021... They enjoy mountain biking, reading, kayaking, and tabletop games, like D&D...
