St. Johns taught me about what type of people and the type of environment I want to be around in the future. St. Johns was a very family oriented community when I look back and think about it. All the teachers, staff, coaches who work there really care for not only their student’s academic goals, but their well being, too. It’s been almost three years since I have graduated from St. Johns and I still keep in touch with some of my teachers and coaches from my time there just because I consider them family now. They all wish me nothing but the best when it comes to accomplishing my dreams and that means a lot because I know I can look back at my hometown and have people in my hip pocket that support me. That’s why picking Florida State and their softball program was a no brainer for me. Florida State has that same family atmosphere that St. Johns carries and that has now become one of the most important values I will always look for in a new environment. Due to being surrounded by a community with a core value of family, I have accomplished my dreams in my athletic career. I am surrounded by people every day who want me to grow as a player and as a person. They push me to work hard and help show me what I am capable of doing both on and off the field. I strive to be the better version of myself not only for me, but for my teammates to my left and right. In 2021, my team and I made it to the Women’s College World Series and ended up being the national runner-up. This so far has been my biggest accomplishment in my athletic career, and there are more goals set to help us get back there and win it all in the future. There are also other little accomplishments I have made in the 36
