What was your most memorable meet and why?
AHSAA XC State Championship because it was the last one.
Where did you face your biggest competition?
The biggest competition was at the Sectional Meet at St. Bernard my senior year in 2020. Since we didn't have a team, the only way the four of us could qualify was to be among the top six individual qualifiers and there were many girls running individually.
Out of all of your high school accomplishments, which stands out the most and why?
Me obtaining the Timothy Skelton award because people were happy that I got it.
If you could do it all over again, what would you change about your running career in high school?
Push myself to my fullest in the beginning because I know that I didn't.
What were the most difficult obstacles you had to overcome during your HS Track career?
Finishing strong.
What will you miss the most?
My Cross Country and Track team.
Do you have any advice for younger athletes?
Enjoy yourself with the team that you have. Learn to cooperate, and push your hardest so you can know how much you truly have in you, because you have more in you than you think.
What are your post-high school or college plans? Who would you like to say thank you to?
University of South Alabama - Art, Concentration in Animation
I would like to thank my Cross Country and Track coaches: Coach Stoots, Coach Williams, and Coach Estes. I'm thankful that they were in my life.
