Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I’m a point guard with an aggressive, dynamic playing style. I excel in slashing through defenses and executing give-and-go plays. I thrive on driving to the basket, often beating my defender with quick moves and agility. My offensive game is complemented by a short jump shot, making me a versatile and challenging player to guard. My defensive pressure often results in steals and stops.

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

I am resilient, positive and hardworking. I am always looking to improve my game and I am a sponge soaking in every learning opportunity. I have a strong work ethic and I lead by example. I let my game speak for itself.

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

I am consistently on the honor roll

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

I am a leader on my team. I am vocal and have great communication skills. I am a team player and always looking to get everyone on the team involved. When I’m not playing basketball I am volunteering in the children’s ministry at my church. I’ve participated in a mission’s trip where I helped build houses in Kentucky.

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

I love to play off the wing and make basket cuts. In middle school I played off the ball a lot because I could cut and get to the basketball to put the ball up. Moving to high school I had to change up my game due to my size. I’m now running point guard which was a challenge at first because I was always off the ball. I’m confident now and facilitating in my new role.

What type of college are you looking for?

I would like to play for a college or university that is inclusive with a competitive girls basketball program. I’m looking for a supportive coaching staff that will help maximize my skills and potential. I am open to private or a public university, whichever offers my program of study and allows me to contribute doing what I love, playing basketball.
