INSPIRATIONS?

When I was young, I looked up a couple player. For goalkeeping, Manuel Neuer and Hope Solo were goalkeepers I strived to be like while Messi and Abby Wambach were my favorite field players.

FAVOURITE OTHER SPORT?

Ping-pong, it’s incredible how fast and technical their reflexes are! I could never. I also enjoy watching volleyball! It’s a very fast pace game were I think some aspects of goalkeeping translate well.

FAVOURITE HOBBIES?

I love to go rock climbing! I got into it a couple years back, I enjoy the challenge and problem solving aspects of bouldering. I also enjoy drawing and creating illustrations, I prefer to work digitally or with ink.
