Bio

Major
Secondary Education 

When did you start playing volleyball?
I started playing volleyball in 7th grade.

What is your favorite sports team and/or player?
One of my favorite players is Steph Curry.

Highlight of your sports career?
The highlight of my sports career was receiving first team all-conference (unanimous vote), getting on the all west central district team, receiving honorable mention all-state, and having my team finish 3rd in the conference under two "top 15 ranked" teams in the state.

What type of growth have you seen in yourself through your years of playing?
I have grown a lot the past 3 years. I worked really hard to improve my skill and it really paid off.

Name the individual who has impacted you the most in your playing career, and how they have influenced you.
The individual who impacted me the most in my playing career was my high school coach, Matthew Overton.  My coach taught me so much about the sport of volleyball, how to be a strong confident woman, and he made me the player I am today.  If it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't be playing volleyball in college.

Favorite passage of scripture and why?
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." Proverbs 3:5-6

I love how it reminds us how we should always look to the Lord in all situations and that He will be there for us no matter what.
