My daughter loves playing volleyball because it challenges her, builds her confidence, and brings her joy. She thrives on the teamwork, fast pace, and constant growth. Volleyball gives her a sense of purpose and belonging—it’s where she feels most alive.
Her inspiration in life is God because He gives her strength, purpose, and guidance. She trusts Him in every step, knowing He has a plan for her life. His love keeps her grounded, and His presence gives her peace through every high and low.
The moment that makes me the proudest is when Laila and her team won the USAV Championship. Seeing her hard work, dedication, and love for the game pay off was unforgettable. She played with heart, led with grace, and showed what true teamwork looks like.
