Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I'm a playmaker. I pride myself on my high court vision and IQ. I can knock down shots as well as see where the ball needs to be.

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

I live for the game and am fortunate enough that my parents and little brother all support me. I'm a homebody when I'm not on the court. I can be quiet while off the court but when I'm on the court, that's my comfort zone to show my personality.

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

I play two travel ball teams, part of FFA Club at school. I got the perfect attendance award this past year as well has honor roll.

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

Under the guidance of my coach I became a confident leader. I have full understanding that it takes the entire team to win a game. Understanding that it's not just the top score, that's important, although I like to keep my averages up. I'm also take pride in being number one in assist in my district

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

I remember trying out for the middle school basketball team and not making it. My mom encouraged me to speak to the coach asking what can I do to improve my chances for the next year. I worked all summer, went to every open gym. Came back as a starter the next year and ended up playing varsity as soon as I got to high school.
