Being a student athlete has brought me to great places in life so far, it pushes me to be the best person I can be and also allows me to be meet new friends. My goal sense I was young is to go to a good college to get a good education while also playing at a higher and more advanced level in volleyball. I could definitely say that volleyball is a big part of my life and brings me to much joy and pleasure to play the sport. Starting at 8 years old I began playing the sport. I have played in many tournaments and games all around Indiana and it has shown me that volleyball is definitely not easy but with hard work and dedication it becomes so much more. I consider myself a very competitive and a go getter person. Every challenge I face I use it as a opportunity to get better. Overall, I think that my hard work in the gym and in the classroom will help me build up my opportunity to play to the next level.
