What's the biggest tip you would give to young aspiring volleyball players out there?
The biggest tip I would give is to keep working hard! Do not let anyone try to tell you what your limits are.

How/when did you start playing volleyball?
When I was in 7th grade, I remember watching my older sister play. I've always looked up to her and wanted to do everything she did so I asked my parents if I could try out for a club team. I have been playing ever since!

What are your goals for the season?
Win the WCC and qualify for the NCAA tournament.

If you had a day off from volleyball, what would you do?
I would go camping or at least go for a hike. We spend quite a bit of time training in the gym so it is nice to get outside when we have some time to ourselves.

What made you choose Gonzaga?
After visiting a few other schools, I found that Gonzaga was the only place that really felt like a family. Whether I am with my professors in the classroom or my coaches on the court, everyone has been truly interested in my development and well-being.

What is your favorite athletic memory at Gonzaga?
I would have to say the win vs. Wyoming! There were so many people there and the energy was crazy! It was by far the most fun I have ever had playing volleyball.

What would be your dream job?
I just recently picked a major so I am taking it one step at a time. I am open to suggestions!

What is your favorite thing about Spokane?
I think it is awesome to be able to go to a school where it snows! We don't exactly get a lot of snow where I am from so that has been exciting.

Favorite sport (other than volleyball)
Volleyball is actually the only sport I have ever played on an actual team. Looking back, I would have loved to be on a swim team but the opportunity never really presented itself.

If you could learn to do anything, what would it be?
I would learn how to speak a different language. I took a semester of French and loved it! If I had the time, I would try to pick up where I left off.
