School: California Lutheran University

Major: Chemistry

What do you want to pursue with your degree?: As a chemistry major I want to graduate and pursue medicine. I plan on going to med school to become an anesthesiologist.

Who inspires you and why?: My siblings! From a young age since I can remember I always tried to keep up and be better than my siblings. They made me who I am today and showed me what determination, passion and hard work looks like.

Favorite soccer memory?: Before I could even talk I went to my parents and pointed at my feet asking for them to get me my first pair of cleats. There were not any in my size because I was so young and my parents bought me the smallest pair of bright pink cleats that I still have today and will never get rid of! Pink was my least favorite color at that age but it didn't matter because all I wanted to do was play!

Why did you choose Sioux Falls City FC?: I choose Sioux Falls City because of their core values of promoting woman in sports, their love for the community and the competitiveness! Everything done by this club is with a purpose and it goes beyond just soccer!
