Quotes:
“Anytime I was playing volleyball, I wanted to be on the court.”
“My parents sacrificed a lot to even get me there.”
“It's easy to give up on something when you think all of a sudden that you know that you're being wronged and that it's not fair what's happening to you, instead of looking at it as ‘what can I do better?’ ‘How can I work harder?’ How can I contribute to my team in other ways?’”
“I love the sport, I also love interacting with people and giving back to athletes and I love helping people believe in themselves and get to that next goal of theirs.”
“It's about getting a little bit better each day and challenging yourself within your own frame and within where you're at.”
“Keep going after what you love and working hard and good things will happen.”
“I want to be there to support the players every step of the way, and have a player-first mentality and prioritizing them and their needs kind of above everything else.”
“I want them to have this community within athletes abroad and have these strong, powerful professional athletes that are supporting each other and helping each other because that's so important when you are thousands of miles away from family and friends.”
“If you are pursuing what you love, then it'll be worth it in the end.”
