When in flow, she can generate big power to force the ball onto the defense aggressively. She can also play with adjustments to challenge hands at the net or control the ball into space. At 5’10, her offensive success from both sides of the court demonstrates the value she can bring. She and her Mintonette m.71 team are the #23 seed in 17 Open.
