Receive Text UpdatesWhat I love most about soccer and flag football is being part of a team and competing. Whether I’m protecting the goal in soccer or playing QB in football, I love the pressure, the challenge, and knowing my teammates are counting on me. Both sports push me to be confident, work hard, and never give up. Most of all, I just love playing the sports I love and having fun doing it!
My family inspires me the most. They always push me to work hard, believe in myself, and never give up. My late big brother Kooper also inspires me to play with heart and make every moment count. I want to show the world a strong female athlete can compete fearlessly and show girls that we can do anything we set our minds to. Most importantly, my faith reminds me that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
One of my proudest moments was realizing that all the hard work I put in was starting to pay off. Getting opportunities to represent my state in soccer and making my middle school flag football team showed me that I can compete at a high level in both sports. I’m proud of the wins and championships, but I’m most proud that I keep pushing myself, even when things get hard.
