Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I would say a defensive point guard and a little bit of a scoring point guard. I'm good at pressuring the ball and forcing turnovers, I'm also good at the ability to create my own shots.

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

I'm hard-working and determined. If I want something, I'm going to get it. I don't back down easily; I don't give up. Honestly, I'm a goofy person, but when it's time to work, I get serious.

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

I have received multiple academic awards, but as of right now, I'm not participating in any clubs.

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

I have developed skills such as communication skills and teamwork. I've developed communication because I constantly had to communicate with my teammates on the court. I developed teamwork because basketball isn't a one-person game, it requires a bond and teamwork with others to get a good result.

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

A challenge I've come across is height. I've always heard a coach say "your too small" of course never to my face, but them saying it behind my back was even worse. I am small, but it always made me wanna work harder. I'm small, ok but nobody gonna pity me because I'm smaller it just means I gotta work twice as hard.
