Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Pass first PG but can also score from all 3 areas and love shooting beyond the arc. Scrappy defensive player with quick hands who loves to push the pace and look for teammates on fast breaks. Skilled passer with good court vision. Also skilled at rebounding even though I am small and not afraid of contact.

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

I am very coachable. I have great relationships with my teammates and coaches. I am strong mentally and level headed on the floor and stay positive for my team.

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

Member of Spanish Honor Society All A honor roll

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

Playing basketball has allowed me to meet people, make friends and see places I would not have otherwise. Travel ball has pushed me to grow in my skills and given me the confidence to be a more vocal leader for my teammates . My Travel Coach and teammates have helped me grow spiritually. The friendships, lessons and experiences will go way beyond the game and all the basketball.

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

I tore my ACL in 8th grade and it was a long road to get back but I surprised my surgeon and physical therapist and recovered faster than most. I feel I am more disciplined in my training due to this injury and it drives me to work even harder.
