I feel most importantly in a sport like volleyball which is extremely mental that it is so important to be supportive and adaptable with the different players on the court. This means personally understanding how my attitude affects those around me and the team dynamic on and off the court.

– Being given the role of assistant captain made me feel humbled and determined to help my teammates feel supported in their development. I was honoured to have been recognized by my coaches as a leader on and off the court.

– The ocean and the environment. I love the idea that the ocean is such an unknown place to us.
– I love sitting down at my piano and learning a new song every so often. It helps me feel more creative and calm

In the sport of volleyball, undoubtedly, my role models are Delaynie Maple and Lexy Denaburg. These two players both share a similar trait of being kind and supportive, loveable teammates and people, but then go onto the court and have a competitively aggressive spirit that is unforgettable. They inspire me to remember that on the court I get to decide what kind of player I am. Outside of volleyball, my biggest role model is my dad. My dad is the most hardworking person I have ever met and has taught me to be patient in the process of things. Whether that be sports, school, relationships or any other aspect of life. He is also so incredibly supportive of my athletics and was my number 1 cheerleader when I decided to switch from basketball to volleyball.

– Starting at 8 I competed in 6 high level, division 1 basketball seasons. I am so grateful for my experiences. Some positive, and some negative, they have helped me become the composed and driven athlete that I am in my true passion, Volleyball.

I have always been interested in different aspects of science. Currently, I am very interested in psychology. Particularly in the area of sports psychology. I also, have always been interested in forensics. Whether this be a forensic investigator, scientist or psychologist. Lastly, I have a deep passion for the ocean and animals. Being a marine biologist or environmental scientist has always been something that deeply interests me.

– I hope to be at a school where I am surrounded by people who inspire me and make me proud to be at the school I am at. It is so important for me to also enhance this experience by having a strong school spirit at the school surrounding sports, rivalries, etc. In terms of school, I envision myself feeling supported but also challenged by teachers and those around me to help build my passion towards my studies.
