WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD?
I chose Linfield because the campus is everything I was looking for. Also, because the second I met the girls from the volleyball team and played with them, I instantly felt at home.
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU?
It means representing something bigger than myself and staying committed to my sport and education.
Â
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON?
It taught me how to show up every single day with heart. I learned that being part of a team means putting others before yourself and doing the little things that no one sees. I’ve grown into someone who’s always cheering the loudest, picking people up when they’re down, and leading with energy and love, because that’s the kind of teammate I’d want beside me.
Â
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS?
I see myself coaching the highest team on the volleyball club that I'm going to open.
WHAT’S THE BEST LINFIELD CLASS YOU’VE TAKEN AND WHY?
The best Linfield class I have taken is gender issues in sports & education because it helped me see gender issues on a deeper level and how to contribute in my own way.
WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEAST INSPIRATION IN YOUR LIFE? WHY HAS HE OR SHE BEEN SO INFLUENTIAL?
My mom has been the greatest inspiration in my life because she has constantly taught me how to love deeply and stay strong through hard times. She has also overcome so many barriers, which have shaped both who she is and who I am today.
WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR FAVORITE MEMORY OF BEING A LINFIELD STUDENT-ATHLETE SO FAR?
Every hype celebration with my team because I feel so lucky that a sport brought such an amazing group of people together and turned us into something that feels like a family.
AS A LINFIELD STUDENT-ATHLETE, MY GOALS INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY FOR MY TEAM ARE:
As a Linfield student-athlete, my goal is to make my final year one I’ll never forget by giving my best to my team and enjoy every moment, no matter how big or little. Collectively, I want us to push each other, create more memories and make it far this season.
