I have always enjoyed sports and been athletic. I played 8 years of select/club soccer excelling as both a striker and defender. When my middle school did not offer Soccer as a sport, I turned to volleyball, despite never playing before. In the summer before my 8th grade year, I was fortunate to be able to attend an immersive volleyball camp at IMG Academy in Bradenton. After that camp, I was confident in my choice to play volleyball and proud to have laid the groundwork for my 8th grade season where I led the team in Kills and Blocks, as well as being one of the top servers.
After the school season, I chose to tryout for club volleyball while still training with my club soccer team for conditioning. I attended open gyms for various Cincinnati area volleyball clubs, receiving multiple offers. The timing of my birthday positioned me in between to ages groups and I received a recommendation to play with my same grade age, ultimately selecting Ohio Premier Volleyball Club. I had an excellent first club season, leading to them extending an offer for this coming season with the 15s.
In August 2025, at the beginning of my freshman year, I tried out for the high school team and was a starter and captain to the JV team, playing across the front row, amd and leading the team in kills and blocks. I then transitioned into a 6-rotation player excelling in digs, assists, and serving. After the 3rd match, the Varsity coach pulled me up to swing and play in Varsity matches as well. At our season-end awards, I earned offensive player of the year for JV.
I am committed to continuing to learn from my coaches and teammates, all while enhancing my skills. One of the most amazing things I’ve learned is that I love this game and am excited about continuing to grow as a player though high school and into college.
Outside of volleyball I am an accomplished nail artist and technician. I’ve logged over 500 hours and have worked with over 300 clients. My following and clients have expanded beyond my friends to other grades, other schools, and even moms of people I know (including mine!)
