What has being a student athlete taught you? 
Being a student-athlete has taught me how to stay on top of my responsibilities and manage my time effectively. Balancing school and sports has helped me avoid procrastinating and stay disciplined, even when my schedule gets busy. 
 
Favorite moment as a high school athlete? 
My favorite moments as a high school athlete were returning from an injury last basketball season and winning the conference as well as the district with my team. 
 
A coach/mentor that has inspired you & why? 
A coach who has inspired me is my dad. He has coached me for many years growing up. He may not be my high school coach, but he is always giving me advice on becoming a better player and supporting me through everything. ​
