As a freshman at Thomas More, I led the team in kills with 446 kills and I earned Presidents'Athletic Conference honorable mention. This year my team was fourth in our conference (PAC) and came into the tournament as the underdog and won the PAC championship.

Coaching Experience and Coaching Awards: I have coached CYO Volleyball for three years. I've coached 6th grade for two years and 8th grade for1 year at St. Andrew St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. Last year at NKJV, I coached their 12-3 team. We did very well winning a few of our tournaments.

Why do I coach?   I coach because I love the game of volleyball! I love having the oppurtunity to help young girls get better at something that they love. Iv'e always looked up to many of my coaches throughout the years and they have become great mentors and role models for me. I want to do the same for other girls. I feel that through my past experiences, I can contribute my knowledge to the girls, and help them achieve their goals!
