Student-Athlete Q&A
What made Liberty University the right place for you to attend college/compete at the collegiate level?
The family-like community and God centered environment.
Is there anything special you do pregame or postgame and why?
Tighten my shoelaces. Because it makes me feel speedy after, like I can trust myself to run quicker.
Who in your life inspires you and why are they such an inspiration?
My parents. They’ve worked so hard to give me a life they didn’t have and make sure I can be the best version of myself physical, mentally, and spiritually.
What is your most memorable athletic moment/accomplishment?
When I went to the state championship my sophomore year, I played the entire game and scored one goal. Also, my entire season coming off an ACL injury.
If you picked your jersey/uniform number, why is that number important to you?
I wear 13 because, to me, it can represent being in the top 3, and always pushing yourself to be the best.
Favorite meal (breakfast/lunch/dinner) and what is that special meal?
For breakfast, avocado toast, for lunch, mac and cheese, and for dinner, enchiladas.
What is the first app you check on your phone each day?
Instagram

I enjoy doing yoga.
Who was your favorite athlete growing up?

What is your Go-To karaoke song?
