Why Wake Forest
I chose Wake Forest because my dad, uncles, multiple cousins, and brother all went to Wake, so it is a family thing. Also, the combination of top-30 academics with ACC basketball, and beautiful campus can’t be beat. It is truly a special place and a great community to be a part of.
Three Things Outside of Basketball
Run, hang with friends and get coffee
Favorite Food
Sushi
Sport Outside of Basketball
Gymnastics
Fun Fact
My pugs is named Deacon
Athlete You Admire
Favorite basketball player is Allie Quigley, but the athlete I admire most is Dearica Hamby because she plays at a high level, works hard, and is still a fantastic mother to Amaya which is such a challenge and very admirable that she can do it all at once so successfully. When I am older, I aspire to be a mother like Dearica or Coach E and manage basketball while having a great relationship with my daughter like they do.
Plans After Graduation
Get my MBA then coach in college athletics or sports business
