Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Smart, scrappy, aggressive, and intentional. I love to tool the block and find open spots no matter where I am on the court.

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

I am prepared to outwork anyone and everyone to help my team win. I always show up, no matter if that means mentally or physically. I always bring positivity to the court and try to make everyone around me better and have fun while doing it.

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

Sources of Strength and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

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

I have developed lots of skills from volleyball. Leadership is something that comes naturally to me because of my drive and hard work ethic. I have always been centered around team work, so volleyball just feeds into that. Community service is something I enjoy doing because I love giving back to the community.

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

My journey has not always been easy. I was an all-star cheerleader for 10 years before I faced a severe knee injury where I was out for well over a year. After that time off and finding someone I looked up to, I decided to make the switch to volleyball in January of 2024. Although it has not been easy, over the last year I have grown tremendously not only as an athlete, but also as a person.
