What do you like to do in your free time? Work out, cook/bake, draw, watch the sunrise/sunset, and read.
What is your proudest accomplishment to date? My proudest accomplishment is being a student-athlete. This journey has taught me resilience, discipline, and the power of balance. Juggling the demands of competing, maintaining strong friendships, excelling in academics, and making time for personal growth has shaped me into the person I am today. Through the highs and lows, I’ve learned the importance of perseverance and self-care, and I hope to inspire others to find strength in their own balancing act.
Post-grad plans: I will be taking a gap year and working at a physical therapy clinic before going back to school to get my doctorate in physical therapy. In that year, I also plan to spend time with my family, friends, and maybe even get some traveling in.
