What/who inspired you to play volleyball? My teammates inspired me because they told me to tryout knowing that I never played in HS.  I just want to thank my teammates for encouraging me when they didn’t have to because now I made it.

Describe yourself –I can make anyone laugh from ages 1 to 100, I have a clone, and im a member of Chocolate City SQUAD which consist of Danetta Boykin and Brittany Turner Lol!

What do you think your biggest contribution to the team is? 
Making everyone and my coach laugh hysterically, teaching my coach Ebonics. Telling my coach that he’s acting Brand New, and being 1 of the 3 chocolate chips in the cookie dough muahahaha!

Goals: My goals are to become a wise woman of God, become a famous fashion designer, and marry Clayton Kershaw! If Clayton and I don’t work out which I doubt it, there’s always an NBA player waiting for me!

Why did you choose to play for Pierce College?I chose to play for Pierce College because no one, I mean NO ONE works as hard as our coach and these group of ladies that I’m honored to play with! Integrity and passion runs in our veins!
