1. What made you choose Ole Miss and why?

I chose Ole Miss because I wanted to play the highest level of softball, and I knew it was the right place as soon as I stepped on Campus and saw the softball stadium.

2. What are your goals for the season?

My goals for this season are to not let anyone steal on me, and as a team I want us to make it to the SEC Tournament.

3. Where do you see yourself in ten years?

In ten years I see myself living back in Long Island with my family. I plan on owning my own business and possibly working in sports and being a coach.

4. What's something that most people don't know about you?

Something most people don't know about me is that I went to Origami Conventions in NYC until about 2 years ago.

5. If you could meet anyone living or dead, who would it be and Why?

I would want to meet with my mom one last time, because I love her and I would just want one last hug from hug.

6. Do you have any superstitions that are habits before the game?

I don't know if it's a superstition or not but always have to wear Nike mid-calf socks under my game socks.

7. If you had a day off from softball, what would you do?

If I had a day off from softball I would sleep in as late as possible, and have a nice cup of coffee. Then go fishing or do something outdoors then watch the sunset, because I really love sunsets.

8. What is your favorite class at Ole Miss and why?

My favorite class at Ole Miss is Business Calculus because I love math.
