What does being a student-athlete mean to you? Being a student-athlete means navigating the pressures of academics and sports, which deepens my sense of responsibility and commitment. Internally, it strengthens my mental toughness and perseverance, teaching me to handle setbacks and stay focused on my goals.
What or who is your biggest influence? My mom is my most significant influence, as she persistently confronts the stigma surrounding women’s sports and the notion of female independence. She embodies strength and resilience in her daily life.
