Elyssa started running junior year of high school after discovering that her favorite part of crew practice was the two mile warmup.  Elyssa capped her stellar career at Penn by placing second in the 10,000 meters at ECACs.  She is on the Penn top 10 list in the indoor and outdoor 3000 and 5000, and in the 10,000, and she was undefeated in the 1500 in the trans-Atlantic series contested by Penn, Cornell, Oxford, and Cambridge.  With GRC, Elyssa will focus on the 1500 and 5000 on the track, and attempt to improve in cross country.  Elyssa works as Associate Consultant at WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff.
