SUMMER GOALS
My goals this summer are to perform during the court time that I am given and to always be working hard at a new goal in order to improve as much as I can and make the most out of this opportunity. A big goal of mine is to be a regular starter and to also, to be seen as a hard-working and coachable athlete.
BASKETBALL ASPIRATIONS
My hope is to play on a university team after high school, and if possible, one day play professionally.
FONDEST MEMORY IN BASKETBALL
My fondest memory so far in my basketball career has been going to the nationals in Langley, BC, as well as winning the 2019 club provincials with my club team.
BIGGEST BASKETBALL INFLUENCE
My biggest basketball influence is probably Martin Riley, former olympian for team Canada, who is known by many as the hardest working and most accomplished athlete ever.
AFTER HIGH SCHOOL
After high school, I would definitely like to go to university and possibly study something in the medical field, although that is not a plan because I haven't really decided what I would like to study.
WHEN BASKETBALL CAREER IS OVER
Somehow still be involved in the sport, like maybe coaching or playing in a senior women's league or something in the basketball genre.
