Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

3 point shooter with deep range. Catch and shoot is my strength, I try to be an unselfish player and Smart defender and rebounder.

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

I love to compete on the court! I am driven to outwork and outsmart my opponents. I generally love people and always trying to build others up on and off the court.

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

I’m on the leadership team for my school and the entire county for Fellowship of Christian Athletes, I’m also on the leadership team for Best Buddies and on my youth leadership team at church.

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

I have learned that I must first lead by example and that allows me to be more vocal while leading. My parents have instilled in me to give back to my community and I love to be involved in community service!

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

I was challenged in basketball in 7th grade when I was sitting the bench most of the year and my dad was the coach. I realized that I needed to work harder and prove that I could and would earn my place on the court by out working everyone.
