Beating Oregon State in the First Round of the NCAA tournament last season

I'll miss all the fun we have as a team just being silly with each other, no matter where we are or what we're doing someone always finds a way to make the whole group laugh

I'll graduate in the Spring 2019 and after graduation I plan to either play overseas for a year or get a job in fashion marketing in my dream city, New York.Â
Â
Most memorable moment as a member of the volleyball team...
Most memorable moment on the team would probably be the dance party we had at the haunted trail and Linda taught the team "Thriller".

Being able to interact and laugh daily with such genuine personalities on the team.

Â
What semester you will graduate and what do you plan to do after graduation?
I will graduate in December of 2018 and I plan to stay in the Raleigh area and work as a medical assistant or EMT in order to gain patient care hours, which is a requirement for Physician Assistant programs. I will also study for the GRE and coach club volleyball at NC Elite.Â
Â
Most memorable moment as a member of the volleyball team...
I will never forget beating Oregon State in the first round of the 2017 NCAA tournament. We then went on to play Texas on their home court. It was an amazing environment to play in, and I will always love our families, friends and fans for being 50 strong Wolfpack fans in a sea of 4,000 Texas fans.
Â
What you'll miss most after the season...
I'll miss the friendships I've built with my teammates, the game of volleyball and the endless support from NC State Athletics. The Athletic Department really takes care of each and every athlete with gear and apparel, athletic training, strength training, nutrition and so much more. When the season is over and I graduate, I'll lose the perks of being an NC State Athlete, but I'll always bleed Wolfpack Red.
