• How are you involved at school?

I am involved at school through various clubs and activities. I have been involved with the Lady Roo Basketball team all four years of high school. When I am not playing basketball I am doing my school work, which has helped me get into other clubs. I am in Key Club, National Honor Society, Science National Honor Society, and English National Honor Society. Also, I am involved in the PALs program at the high school, which helps me get involved with the younger generation at Weatherford.

• What advice do you have for an incoming 9th or 10th grader?

My advice for an incoming Freshman or Sophomore is to focus on your school work, but also have fun. You only have one high school career, so make the most of it. Make friends and have fun, while also dealing with your academic business to help you in your future endeavors.

• What does Roo Nation mean to you?

Roo Nation means a community full of support to me. Recently I tore my ACL during a basketball game and I have had nothing but support from everyone. All of my teachers, coaches, admin, and SROs have been nothing but kind to me and they are always checking in on me. It is very important to have a great community and support system and I think we definitely have that here at Weatherford.

• Who is your biggest inspiration?

My biggest inspiration is my family. Not just my mom and dad, but also my sisters, my grandma, and my aunts. Everyone in my family is so strong and they have overcome so many adversities. Knowing that they have been through so much and still show up everyday and stay so strong inspires me everyday.
