Q: How did you get into playing your sport?
A: My mom would take me to her sand volleyball games when I was a toddler and her rec league in elementary school so I've been around the game my whole life. I then started playing competitively in fifth grade.

A: I was born without part of the bone to my lumbar spine.

Q: If you were a superhero, what would your superpower be and why?
