Hobbies/Interests outside of volleyball:  I am a very outdoorsy person: I love hunting, fishing, camping etc., I also enjoy playing and watching almost all sports because I tend to be a little competitive, though volleyball has always been my favorite. School is extremely important to me and it becomes more enjoyable every year as I attend. But most of all I love coaching for Junior Olympics because it is away for me to give back to the program in which I have been able to learn and grow from in the past and it has always been an enjoyable experience!
