Throughout my life sports have always been the constant. Since I was young I participated in a multitude of athletic activities; growing up I was a gymnast and basketball player, starting volleyball in middle school. The past three years I have utilized volleyball to my advantage as a grounding rock in my life. With the changes in our world it helps me to focus on others rather than myself, as soon as I step on the court the stress of my life fades because I play not for myself but for my team. That is what I am looking for in a collegiate team,; people I put my faith in because they trust me and I trust them to play for one another, one-hundred percent.
