Romoland, CA
I'm a fun, energetic student athlete who gives 110% in everything I do. Life is an adventure and I plan to make the most of every adventure, or challenge that comes my way. I have a passion for volleyball and my savior Jesus Christ. I'm a spunky ball of energy who loves to have fun doing absolutely anything. I'm actively involved in Young Life, a Christian youth group, and I thank God everyday for what I've been given. I excel in everything I do because I have the determination to be the best. This is just what makes me, ME!
