Why I chose UST: I chose St. Thomas because I wanted a school with a challenging academic experience. It is a bonus that St. Paul is awesome as well as my teammates.
Who inspires you or is a role model: Powerful women are my inspiration because they show me I can do anything despite the "limits" of being a girl. There are no limits! They make me want to uplift other girls as well.
Favorite sports memory: My favorite sports memory is going through the uphill battle with my teammates and winning State Basketball my senior year of high school. Instead of crying because we came up short a few points like the previous years we celebrated with our entire city because we brought the first one home to them.
Favorite Athlete: Kobe Bryant
