My future aspirations include playing College basketball and obtaining a degree in journalism & a minor in Sports Management. I started playing basketball in 2nd grade, and I have been coached my entire life to achieve a goal through a process that demands hard work, passion & determination . I have developed a high basketball IQ , my length gives the opposing team problems, and shooting long range is my specialty. But being able to get others involved is the goal. I pride myself in being an all around player . My #1 goal is to play Division 1 basketball and I will do whatever it takes to reach that goal!
