Student-Athlete Q&A
What made Liberty University the right place for you to attend college/compete at the collegiate level?
I love the Liberty atmosphere, I get a chance to play with my sister again, and I get to be surrounded by girls that want it as badly as I do. I’m surrounded by a phenomenal coaching staff.
Is there anything special you do pregame or postgame and why?
I have a 5 minute quiet time just to think about the plays/calls and thank God for letting me live another day.
Who in your life inspires you and why are they such an inspiration?
My Nani inspires me. She is not my biological grandma, but she is so hardworking, and she has lost things in her life, but it has only made her stronger. I love her very much.
What is your most memorable athletic moment/accomplishment?
I was 3rd in the state for woman’s wrestling my senior year of high school.
Favorite meal (breakfast/lunch/dinner) and what is that special meal?
My mom used to make beef tips and gravy for dinner, that was definitely something to look forward to coming home from practice.
What is your favorite hobby outside of athletics?
Taking a long nap.
Do you have any current pets (name and type of animal)?
I have a bulldog, her name is Sunshine.
What is your Go-To karaoke song?
“Love” by Keyshia Coke.
What is your dream vacation spot and why?
Australia, I’ve just always thought it was beautiful.
