Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I would describe mine style as scrappy, but consistently scrappy.

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

I try to have mental toughness while I'm on the court, but sometimes I get in my head and it makes it hard to get back. My mentality is based on the Bible verse: Phillipians 4:13 - "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." On the other hand, my personality can get a little chaotic. I always try to hype up my teammates in any way I can.

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

Yes, I am in the NAHS. I want to get involved in more clubs though, just haven't had enough time to accomplish this.

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

A lot of people have told me that I have leadership qualities. In 8th Grade, I was given the leadership award at graduation. This meant a lot to me because I never really thought of myself as being a leader to people.

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

Yes. the passing of my grandmother was a struggle for me. I was only 7 years old when it happened, and she was my Rock. I loved her greatly, and the things that I do today, even if she isn't wit me anymore, are for the Lord, her, and My mom.

What type of college are you looking for?

I'm looking for a top academic college, that has an Animal Science program. I want it to be great in sports too, especially volleyball, but if that's not the path God wants me to take then it will all be okay.
