I love being a leader. it comes natural to me. I am very verbal with coaches and players. My dad was/is a coach as the HS and college level so that has helped fast track learning. We watch a lot of film as well, not just on me but team.
Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.
A transfer decision was made to maximize my potential. Leaving my friends wasn't easy, but I want to play college basketball, and possibly football, so it was a must. My parents left the decision up to me, so my sister and I transferred to Minnetonka from Elk River. It was the best decision we ever made. I was able to play high school basketball in 8th grade and my sister was a varsity gymnast
What type of college are you looking for?
A college that allows me to expand my adademic and athletic career. A good coach, who allows players to play, but coaches hard. I want to maximize my potential. I also want an academic school that will prepare me for my life outside of college.
