I love that on game days everybody is asking my teammates and me about the game and how it’s going to go and it’s always great to see the support system we have.
If you were giving advice to other young athletes playing volleyball, what would it be?
Advice to young Goat athletes, you’re only going to be as good as the work you put in, nothing comes free in this sport!
Who is your all-time favorite Volleyball Player (professional college, etc.)?
My all-time favorite volleyball player would have to be Victoria Garrick from the University of Southern California, she’s an amazing libero and an even better person. She graduated from college but she still inspires me to be the best that I can be on and off the court.

When I’m not playing volleyball I also run cross country, I play basketball, and I run track and pole vault.

I’m not completely sure of what I want to do when I graduate high school. I do know that I am going to college and I think I want to be a Dental Hygienist. At the same time I want to be a coach and a teacher, I’ll figure it out!
