Extracurricular Activities
I was very active in high school. I played volleyball my freshman, sophomore, and senior year. As well as softball my freshman and senior year. During the summers of my junior high and high school career I played on a travel softball team. I have volunteered for many things in and out of high school. Being productive and helping out my community is very important to me.
I love to be outdoors, read books, learn new things anywhere and everywhere I can, listen to music and podcasts, be around family and friends, and help in anyway I can.
