TRIPS I HAVE BEEN ON
Yucatan, Mexico (2015)
​
The summer after my junior year of high school, I went to Mexico on a mission trip. Here, I got to build relationships with volleyball players in the community, learn how to communicate cross-culturally, and engage with a different culture.
​
Puerto Rico (2017 and 2019)
​
I have been to Puerto Rico twice with the Asbury Women's volleyball team. In both trips, we got to deepen our relationships with one another, share our testimonies, and facilitate volleyball camps for girls in the community.

​
I love to travel both internationally and domestically. I love to see the different places and people that God has created.
