Student-Athlete Q&A

How did you end up at Liberty?
Coach Lang saw me play at a showcase I fell in love with the campus environment, I committed here.

What stood out about it?
I love that it was a Christian school I felt I could grow my faith, that's what I loved about the school.

How important is your faith to you in your everyday life? Respondent
My faith is very important to me. It guides my decisions and helps me stay grounded. I rely on it for strength and comfort, especially during challenging times. It also plays a significant role in how I interact with others and approach life's challenges. It's my whole life. I love Jesus. He died for our sins, every day that I grow closer to him, I feel more fulfilled in my life.

Tell me about when you started playing soccer and how important it is to you.
I started playing soccer when I was three years old; it became a big part of my life. I fell in love with the game compared to all the other sports I played, I've loved it ever since.

What are your earliest memories of being out there kicking the ball around?
When I would lose, I would cry when I was 4 years old, I said the team would cheat, I knew that I was a competitor early, I needed to keep playing this sport.

Any family members that have played college or pro sports?
I have no family members who played college or pro sports, but my mom did play soccer when she was younger, that's why I was put into it as well.

Did you play other sports growing up?
I did dance gymnastics for a little bit, but I hated it. I loved soccer, I just stuck to that.

Tell me about your parents, your siblings. What, what do they do?
I have a dad and a mom. My dad is an accountant. My mom is a nurse. I have two younger sisters, one named Adriana and the other one named Madeleine.

What are you doing outside of soccer?
I actually love to read. I've actually read 60 books this year. Any time in my free time, I choose to read.

What is your favorite type of book to read and your favorite book that you've read so far?
I like all types of books, but I've been reading classics. I think my favorite classic so far is Pride and Prejudice.

Anything up to this point in life that you've been through that could be some adversity?
I wasn't. I've always grown up as a Christian. Before I became a Christian, about the beginning of my junior year, I felt really lost and sad. I had a lot of hardships in my life. But when I fully gave my life to Jesus, my life just sparked back up. I felt I had purpose because he gave me purpose.

Who in your life inspires you and why are they such an inspiration?
My mom has inspired me the most! Seeing my mom switch careers from a pilot to a nurse she has truly inspired me to work as hard as possible.

What is your most memorable athletic moment/accomplishment?
Winning the GA Southwest Conference 3x in a row was truly memorable because I accomplished it with the same girls my whole club career.
