year 8 as a pro 🫨

I’m pinching myself that this is my full-time job! I’m so thankful for everything this sport has given me - my teammates and coaches, the amazing travels, the opportunity to compete and push myself to my limits. And I’m just so giddy to witness all of the growth women’s volleyball has seen since I first gave this sport a try in the 7th grade. Here’s to love of the game 💕
