What are your goals for the upcoming season? Coming off of two knee surgeries, I hope to return in full health to the game I love and be the best teammate I can be both on and off the court.

Why did you choose SWU? I chose SWU because of the Christian community on the campus, but also on my team.  I also love Upstate SC.

What is your favorite thing about SWU? I love the community at SWU and being able to talk about Jesus in class and grow in my faith.

Why is your sport important to you? I've played basketball since I was three and it has taught me so many life lessons and helped grow me into who I am.  Playing college ball was a goal I had my whole life and I am so happy to be able to continue playing the game I love.

Who is your greatest influence in life? Why? My mom.  She always encourages me, pushes me and shows Christ's love.  She's grown me into who I am and I think of her as my best friend.

Where do you want to be in five years? In five years, I hope to be graduated from SWU and in school for physical therapy

Favorite athlete? Sabrina Lonescu

Favorite food? Raising Canes or steak
