She loves the thrill of the game, the teamwork, and pushing herself to grow—soccer fuels her passion, purpose, and confidence every day.
She’s inspired by her coaches who push her to be her best, her parents who support every step, and stars like Alex Morgan, who show what’s possible with hard work and heart. On and off the field, she learns to lead with courage, stay humble, and never give up—because greatness isn’t just about talent, it’s about determination, discipline, and believing in yourself no matter what.
When three top players left her rec team, she didn’t back down—she stepped up. She trained harder, carried her team with heart, and became their anchor. Instead of settling, she pushed further, training with club teams until she earned her place with Las Vegas Heat Surf. That journey built her pride, confidence, and resilience. Watching her rise through adversity and find her strength has been one of the proudest moments of her athletic journey.
