Personal
- Born March 9 in Murrieta
- Parents are Jarred and Jenny
- Her hero is one of her best friends, Sophie Moser-Smith because "we have both been through a lot of the same life events and we have been there for each other every moment for the past 2 years. She is one of my greatest supporters and has always been there to pick me up after a bad race even if she did well in it. I look up to her so much in both life and track and field, even though she goes to UCR now."
- Admires Elle St. Pierre, Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone and Courtney Wayment because "they all show resilience in their specific events and maintain a humble and motivated attitude no matter what. Watching them compete makes me motivated to become a greater athlete."
- Chose Chico State because "of the location, great major option, and how welcoming the distance team was during our visit. I could see myself really enjoying the next 2-3 years here."
- Her greatest sports moment so far was competing at the Southern California Regional Championships during her freshman year at San Diego Mesa, where she earned all-region recognition and recorded a new 5K personal best
- Outside of sports, her best talent is "always having extreme amounts of energy."
- In her free time, she likes to travel, hike and go camping
- On her bucket list is to visit a new country every summer
- The best advice she received was from her San Diego Mesa coach Wes: "Our athletic window is a very short period of our lives. We get so caught up in wanting to be better and better that we miss being in the moment and enjoying the sport. We need to appreciate our time here while we're doing it and just have fun, because you will never get these moments back."
- Majoring in Marketing with aspirations to work in sports marketing or as a marketing coordinator for a major running shoe company
