Unique Story: I’ve hopped from the Bronx and Manhattan most of my childhood until 10^th grade. Then I went upstate and continued high school. I first got into volleyball because my best friend at the time wanted to try out but didn’t know anyone who was going and didn’t want to be alone, so I accompanied her. She didn’t end up making the team, but I did. And since then volleyball has become a safe haven for me, a place I can learn and grow without feeling any pressure besides the one I put on myself.
