What are your interests outside of sports? Why do you like them?
Outside of sports I enjoy making music, going to the gym, and going on adventures in the outdoors. I love playing piano and guitar and trying out new styles of music. I also love being outside and seeing new places, because it makes me excited to see more of the world around me.
Who are your role models and why?
My role models are my coaches and the older players I have seen achieve their goals that are similar to mine. My coaches are always building me up and teaching me new things, as well as supporting me through good and bad days on the court. The players that I have seen meet their achievements and be proud of their accomplishments inspire me to keep following what I am passionate about, and help me remember that anything is possible.

What program would you like to attend in school?
I am working towards pursuing a career in dietetics, because I want to become a clinically registered dietitian. This job would allow me to work with athletes and stay connected to sports, and also help them meet their nutrition needs by building plans to help them stay healthy and perform their best.
How do you envision your school life in college/university?
I picture my life in college/university to be full of new experiences, memories, and people. I look forward to studying the things that I am passionate about, while continuing to play the sport I am passionate about and that brings me joy. I am excited to keep living a healthy lifestyle and meeting new friends, teammates, mentors, and coaches who love beach volleyball in the same way I do.
