How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I read well in defense and am aggressive in picking balls up and never letting them hit the floor.

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

I will run through walls just to make a play happen and will never stop hustling. I’m very communicative with my teammates and very supportive. I love seeing others succeed, cheering them on, and being loud when we win any point no matter how big or small.

I have received an all As Honor Roll award, I am part of NHS, FCA, and HOSA at school.

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

My 15s year I struggled with my coaches being unfair in my playing time and how they treated me but my 15s year I was the loudest and most supportive I have ever been focusing on making an amazing club season for my teammates and doing what was best for them. I also have had to overcome a broken fibula but I fought through physical therapy and came back stronger.
