1. What is your favorite volleyball memory and why?
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.
2. Who is someone you look up to the most and why?
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.
3. Name a place you've always wanted to go to but never have been.
I have always wanted to go to New Zealand, I think it's so beautiful.
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.
