WHAT MAKES YOU LOVE NORTHERN COLORADO VOLLEYBALL?
Having an instant second family, it’s a home away from home!
if you were to play another sport in college, what sport would you choose?
I would probably have chosen to continue rowing! I think I would give rugby a shot too!
IF YOU Had to play another position other than outside hitter, what would you choose?
Libero. Go big or go home, gotta go with the complete opposite of what I know!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE VOLLEYBALL MEMORY?
My favourite volleyball memory is from my last year of club with the Halton Hurricanes in 2018. My club team won provincials after having an amazing season overall, and it was one of the most fun seasons I’ve had playing volleyball.
When did you begin to play volleyball?
7th grade, when I was 12 years old.
WHAT are you majoring in and why?
I’m majoring in environmental science. I chose this degree because I’m really interested in everything involving nature, and am interested in how we will adjust to the effects of climate change within our lifetime. The production-consumer-waste timeline is also a topic I’m really interested in.
What is your favorite movie?
My favourite movie is either pride and prejudice or 10 things I hate about you.
IF YOU COULD only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would you pick?
Dumplings (plus dipping sauce)!!
who knows you the best?
my mom!
If you won the lottery, what would be your first purchase?
Order an amazing, delicious catered spread (appetizers, dinner, dessert, charcuterie, all of it) for friends and family, and gather everyone for a big dinner.
When you have free time outside of class and practice, where is the first place you go?
A thrift store, restaurant, or coffee shop that I have never been to before.
What is the best concert that you've been to?
So many to pick from, but probably being in the pit for Mumford and Sons in 2015.
