Special Skills & Activities:
I’ve played on the Michie School basketball team as a starter and point guard for the past 3 years. Currently I am playing in a Summer League and AAU Basketball Program out of Jackson, TN. I have been the softball 2nd basemen for 3 years at Michie School, as well as a member of the track team. I plan to play basketball and soccer in high school this year. Although I love sports, my passion is in pageantry and painting. I volunteer at local fundraiser pageants and emcee if needed. Although drawing and painting is something I do as a hobby, I recently started “Painting with a Purpose” to raise money for Youth Town. I also enjoy recreational horse riding, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
