Student-Athlete Q&A
What made Liberty University the right place for you to attend college/compete at the collegiate level?
I wanted a Christlike culture and a healthy environment where I could thrive not only as a soccer player but as a person and woman of God. Liberty checked all those boxes and made me feel at home as soon as I stepped on campus.
Is there anything special you do pregame or postgame and why?
I try to do mental imagery and journal before the game. This helps me get in the right mindset and be less nervous.
Who in your life inspires you and why are they such an inspiration?
My dad. He works very hard and is a man of integrity. He never compromises his values or faith and is always serving those around him.
What is your most memorable athletic moment/accomplishment?
Being named All American. It felt so amazing and I was so excited to have been honored with that reward.
If you picked your jersey/uniform number, why is that number important to you?
16. It was my high school number and it reminds me of my amazing team and experience playing with them.
Favorite meal (breakfast/lunch/dinner) and what is that special meal?
Dinner. A good Mediterranean dish like shish kabob or chicken gyros.
What is the first app you check on your phone each day?
Agape. It’s a relationship app me and my boyfriend use to grow our relationship with each other
What is your favorite hobby outside of athletics?
Art.
Do you have any current pets (name and type of animal)?
I have two cats named Grayson and Gideon and two dogs named Remington and Cooper.
Who was your favorite athlete growing up?
Lionel Messi
What is your favorite possession and why?
Bible because it’s how I fight my battles and learn more about the amazing love of God.
What is your Go-To karaoke song?
Diamonds by Rihanna
What is your dream vacation spot and why?
Greece because it’s so beautiful!
