I started playing volleyball when I was in the 3rd grade. In 6th grade I decided to try out for club. I have been in love with the sport ever since. Currently, I drive a little over 2hrs one way, 3 times a week, for club practice. I have been taking a weights class the last 3 years which has helped increase my power and improve my strength and speed. The last 2 seasons of school ball, I put in early morning, individually coached sessions for extra practice. My dedication and determination have lead me to be a fierce competitor, an extremely hard worker, quick on my feet, the ability to read the court well, and to never give up.
