Who is the biggest influence in your athletic career and why?

She has really helped me with my performance this year and last year, but she is so much fun to have not only as a coach but also as someone to go to for support and help whenever I need it. She is now one of my favorite people to remember basketball with so far these two years. She holds me accountable and is super supportive, and I know that she cares a lot about me as a person and a player, so I am so grateful for her and happy to have her as my coach.”
