Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Quick guard and lights out 3 point shooter but also quick off the dribble and finishes well. Aggressive on defense and always now my defensive position.

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

I’m a very competitive person who will work hard and do anything to win.

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

I am in national honors society for students with a high GPA my junior and senior year. In my spare time do a lot of volunteer work.

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

I’ve spent three years being a captain of the basketball team so from a young age in High school I was put in a leadership role which taught me a lot about good qualities to have as a leader. I’m involved in youth group and do community service regularly such as volunteering at events, craft fairs, concerts, and even volunteering for the Washington Trail Association.

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

The summer before my senior year I tore my ACL which was really hard not being able to play through travel season and for my senior year of highschool but it taught me a lot about being a leader and I got to have a different view of what was happening on the court. I helped coach and be there for my teammates.
