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

Growing up as the youngest of six siblings has instilled in me a drive to strive for leadership. I always give my all and go above and beyond in everything I do. But I also do things as a team. In terms of community service, I volunteer at the library reading to younger children.

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

In the summer of 2023, I suffered an injury that sidelined me for four months. It was a challenging period, and I had to put in extra effort to catch up with the rest of the team. I worked hard to earn back my position and playing time. It was both challenging and rewarding .
