Why do you think it’s important for young women to hold leadership roles?

Historically, women haven’t always been seen as capable of being strong leaders with powerful voices. Now, when young women hold leadership roles, they share their ideas, opinions, and creativity and become role models. This builds their confidence, communication and ability to inspire, which helps them and our world become a better place.

What do you hope other students at Walker’s take away from your leadership on EWAC?

I hope I can help other students at Walker’s to give their best effort, show willingness to learn, and be great teammates in athletics and leadership, regardless of their skills or level of play. I want them to understand they can be themselves and share their perspectives, no matter what others think.

Who is your favorite athlete?

My favorite athlete is Caitlyn Clark of the Indiana Fever.

What is one fun fact about you that may surprise people?
