What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

She loves the energy and teamwork involved in volleyball. By competing and being on the court with teammates, it pushes her to get better every time she plays.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

Coach Heather Law inspires her both on and off the court. Coach Law has been with her since day one when she was just learning the game. Now she trains with her to help her tweak her techniques. She’s always supportive in her coaching techniques regarding volleyball and life lessons. Coach Law is loved by everyone that she meets both on and off the court, and she has a huge family who all have a huge heart as well.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

Because of her birthday, she has to play up compared to her classmates in school. It made me very proud that she made the top national team of a well-known volleyball club in town despite competing with girls older than her. This year she’s actually playing two years up, which will be a great challenge that she is excited to take on.
