Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am focused, determined and always ready to give my best on the field. I stay calm under pressure and believe in staying positive when things are going well or not. I am a team player who pushes myself and others to improve. I always strive to bring energy and commitment to every game and practice.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I am a member of NJHS and DECA where I develop leadership and teamwork skills. I was also honored to receive the Student Female Athlete of the Year award. It recognized my dedication and hard work both in sports and academics.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I have developed teamwork and leadership skills through sports and activities. I played on the school volleyball, softball, basketball and cheer teams in jr high. I learned how to communicate with others and work together to achieve goals.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I consider myself lucky because I have not faced many significant challenges. The biggest challenge I have is balancing my time between academics, sports and extracurricular activities. It can get overwhelming at times but I am learning to stay organized and keep a positive mindset.

What type of college are you looking for?

I would like to go to a college that has a balance between academics, sports and extracurricular activities. A school where I can continue to develop both on and off the field. I am looking for a supportive environment that encourages both academic success and athletic achievement.
