How did you get into playing volleyball, and how old were you?
I started playing volleyball in fourth grade, and I played at Windermere Prep. I’ve always been libero, because I was just always short.
What is it that you love about a good dig?
My favorite part about getting a good dig is after, when you’re like, ‘Yeah!’ … You know you’re in the right spot, and it feels perfect.
What’s your personal goal for the season?
My personal record for digs is 34 in a game, so I want to exceed that.
What’s your goal for the team this season?
Definitely to win districts — at least. It’s my last year.
What’s your favorite other sport?
The only other sport I play is golf.
Which game are you most looking forward to this season?
Definitely our home game against Apopka (on Sept. 23).
Who’s your role model/hero when it comes volleyball?
I would say (Olympic gold medalists) Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty-May Treanor, because they’re just awesome. Misty-May is also a defensive specialist, and she’s short, so it gives me hope.
Why do you think it’s valuable to your team to be so enthusiastic and positive?
I feel like your energy is contagious, so if one person has a bad attitude, it’s like a disease. … I feel like if I’m the person to have a lot of energy, it will bring the whole team up.
Take your pick: Gators, Seminoles or Knights?
I’m actually a Gator-hater … but I don’t really root for any college in particular.
Where are you from originally?
My hometown is Fishers, Ind.
What’s your dream car?
My dream car is a Toyota FJ Cruiser.
What’s your dream job?
I want to be a marine biologist.
