What are you most excited for with Team USA? “I am most excited for traveling around the world and getting the opportunity to play in a competitive international environment. I’m also excited about meeting different people along the way and expanding my softball community to the global scale.”

What does it mean to you to represent the USA? “To me, representing the USA means following in the footsteps of some of the best softball players in the world. In this way, it means that we have the responsibility of showing up everyday with the desire to get better and work hard for our teammates and for ourselves. Though the US has a reputation for finding success in many different sports internationally, I think that it is most important to showcase values and ideas that are important to me such as hard work and community.”
