Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:

One of the most unforgettable moments in my golf career came during a challenging tournament where I struggled through opening rounds of 79 and 81. Rather than letting frustration take hold, I made the conscious decision to change my mindset and focus entirely on the present. In the final round, everything seemed to click—I played with clarity and confidence, shooting a 70, which tied the lowest score of the entire event. That incredible final round propelled me nearly 20 spots up the leader board, earning a 5th place finish, and it became clear to me that this was more than just a score—it was a battle between giving up and digging deep, a moment that revealed true strength born from vulnerability and resilience. That experience changed how I see challenges—not as setbacks, but as opportunities to rise.

Goals:

My goal is to keep improving every day, compete at a high level in college, and ultimately work toward becoming a professional golfer. I’m focused on staying disciplined, learning from coaches, and helping my team win.

I have also competed in ballet and basketball
