She loves spending time with her teammates, cheering each other on, and singing chants together before and during games. She also loves the excitement of competing and working hard toward a common goal. Winning tournaments and helping her team earn a national championship are memories she will always cherish.
Her mother inspires her both on and off the court. She spends countless hours helping her improve her skills by practicing with her at home and driving her to practices, tournaments, and training sessions. When she feels stressed or discouraged, her mother always encourages her to keep going.

One of the proudest moments of her athletic journey was winning a national championship with her teammates. All of the long practices, hard work, and dedication finally paid off. It wasn't just about winning the title; it was about seeing how much she and her teammates had grown together. That experience taught her the importance of perseverance, teamwork, and believing in herself.
