I am a dynamic and versatile outside hitter (OH/MH/RS) from Omaha, NE. I will be graduating from Gretna High School in 2021 and am dedicated to further developing as a volleyball player after my high school career ends.

I have been playing volleyball for as long as I can remember. While I’ve played other sports, volleyball has always been the sport that I am most passionate about. Playing college volleyball would be an invaluable experience; I could work with an incredible coaching staff, learn from other accomplished athletes, and grow my love for the game even more. Being a part of a college team may lead to many long-lasting friendships and would most certainly result in overall personal growth.

On the court, I play volleyball with passion and determination. My role as team captain and 6-rotation player on my club team has challenged me to be both a leader and a motivator. I've also had the opportunity to learn and play middle blocker during my 15U Club season. These experiences have helped me to develop strong court awareness and given me the opportunity to become a highly versatile player.  Both on and off the court, I always strive to show my teammates and coaches a determined, dedicated, energetic demeanor with a drive to succeed.  

My plan is to take college prep classes throughout high school and to maintain a high GPA. When I am not studying or playing volleyball, I volunteer at my church, assist each year with the Special Olympics, spend time helping special needs students at my school and participate in service club.

I believe I can be an asset to a collegiate volleyball team, and I am motivated to pursue a higher education, degree, and ultimately, a professional career. My college athletic aspiration is to be the best student-athlete I can be and also a great role model for others while continuing to help grow the sport of volleyball.
