Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I'm an instant impact player that can play on any level & be the game changer. I have a deep passion for the game & looking forward to the next level. I can play 1-4 & with my versatility I can be used anywhere. I love to rebound, shoot and get teammates involved.

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

I'm very friendly but quiet and to myself most of the time. I love all things beauty and fashion and have been labeled as a trend setter and inspiration for others. I am a joy to be around and bring out the best in others.

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

I have received several honors awards that include: Selected for Membership in the National Society of High School Scholars(NSHSS), Invited Scholar for National Youth Leadership Forum: Medicine, Selected for Congress of Future Medical Leaders Award of Excellence, and Outstanding Character Award

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

I am the oldest child with 3 younger siblings and being the oldest I had to learn to be a leader as well as share and work together. As a Point Guard at Salisbury I had to step it up and take on a lead role which I took pride in getting my teammates involved and being a good example. We also go to experience giving back to our community by cleaning areas and feeding the homeless.

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

Being quiet and different can lead to you not fitting in and at times can make you an easy target for bullying. I've had to learn how to stand up for myself and make difficult decisions that led to a lot of criticism but I'm resilient and keep pushing forward and always doing things the right way.

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a college where I can play basketball at the highest level with a family approach. Looking for togetherness and most importantly a team that plays as a team.
