Â
1. What is your favorite volleyball memory and why?
Â
My freshman year we beat Washington at home when they were ranked #1 in the country. It was such a well-played game, both teams playing at a really high level and the crowd was super into the match; it was a fun environment to play in.Â
Â
2. Who is someone you look up to the most and why?
Â
My cousin David, he lived such an inspiring life of love and joy and I always think about how I can be as caring and thoughtful as him.Â
Â
3. Name a place you've always wanted to go to but never have been.
Â
I have always wanted to go to New Zealand, I think it's so beautiful.
Â
4. Why did you choose to become a Colorado Buffalo?

After visiting the campus and spending some time in Boulder, I realized there is not another campus anywhere that is nearly as beautiful, it was a no-brainer for me. I also connected really well with the players and the program felt like a family away from home.
