Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I'd say I'm hyper focused during games and look for tendencies in opponents that will allow my team the best chance of scoring. Every point matters!

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I love to play, compete against the best teams and win. My teammates are everything and there's nothing better than loving your teammates and being in sync.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

In addition to volleyball, I’m also active in my chapter of National Charity League (NCL) where I’ve held a board position and served as committee chair in a leadership role. Served on the board as the Recording Secretary. Chaired committees for the father-daughter dance & cultural events. Over 150 hours of community service events.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

Varsity “Wolfpack” award for Teamwork during 2024 sophomore season. During my freshman season, I was asked by a senior Middle to speak on her behalf at the end of season banquet and was asked by two players during my sophomore season. As a Freshman, I was selected by head coach as an ambassador for the volleyball program to speak to groups of incoming freshman and parents.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Shanking a couple balls in a row will rattle anyone, but I've learned to calm myself and play. Other than that, it's just fighting through minor injuries to keep playing.
