I love the environment on campus and the coaches. It really feels like home there.

Shoutout to my dad who has been my pitching coach since I started playing softball. We’ve worked through a lot of ups and downs together.

When I was younger, I was always about a foot taller than everyone else. Naturally, my parents signed me up to play basketball. I loved basketball more than anything and I would be playing 7 days a week. I was set on my dream of playing basketball in college. But then stopped growing and everyone seemed to shoot up to be taller than me. Around the same time is when I started getting into softball a lot more, and the dream changed. I still played basketball, just focused more on softball. I’m really glad that dreamed changed, bc now I’m here:)
