Major: Psychology

What I like most about Siena College: The campus is small and it is easy to get around everywhere quickly.

Where do you see yourself in another five years? In graduate school and living back in Colorado.

Other sports I like to follow at Siena include: Soccer and Lacrosse.

What I like most about Siena volleyball: That our team is so diverse and we are all from different places around the country.

My best Siena volleyball moment has been: Beating Niagara 3-0 in 2011 season when they were undefeated and my parents were here from Colorado to see it.

What I like most about Coach Pierre: He is always looking out for everyone's best interest and will do anything he can to help.

My superstitions are: Never say that we're going to win before we play

If I didn't play volleyball, I would: I wouldn't really know what to do with my life. I'd probably spend more time snowboarding.

The player on the team who I relate to best is: Taylor Akana. We are the only juniors this year, roommates, and both from out of state. She's one of my best friends.

The funniest player on the team is: Anita Jackson. She doesn't even have to try to be funny, everything she does is hilarious. Definitely lightens the mood during practices.

My most embarrassing sport moment: Tripping onto the court when I got subbed in, and stepping fully out of my shoe...then having to quickly shove it back onto my foot.

My most overused phrase in text messages is: "Lol" ...

One thing people would be surprised to know about me: I was born in Hawaii and I lived in Japan.

My hidden talent is: I draw, but it's just for fun and nothing serious.

What is that one thing, you can't do without: My cell phone, I'm always on it.

If I could travel anywhere in the world, I would go to (why): Australia, I've always wanted to go there.

My hobbies are: Snowboarding, volleyball, running, sand volleyball, rock climbing, and drawing.

My biggest fear is: Not being successful in life.

If I were a crayon, I would be this color: That blue colored crayon that tricks you and ends up being purple when you use it.
