1. What programs and activities do you participate in?

I participate in softball, swimming, basketball, National Honor Society, and I am a Student Ambassador and an executive member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.

2. What academic accomplishment are you most proud of?

I am most proud academically for pushing myself to take Iowa Central classes that are hard for me and upper-level math classes as well.

3. What’s your best piece of advice for younger students?

The advice I would give to younger students would be to try new sports or activities and push yourself academically and socially, make new friends and talk to new people as often as you can.

4. What is your go-to song or artist?

I wouldn’t say I necessarily have a “go-to” song or artist but lately, I have been playing more country music because it reminds me of summer and I miss summer.

5. What is your favorite class or subject and why?

My favorite classes right now are medical terminology and human anatomy because I like science and they push me a lot.

6 .What is your favorite movie?

My favorite movie is “The Lion King.”

7. If you could have dinner with someone famous, who would it be and why?

I would have dinner with Rachel Garcia, a pitcher for UCLA and currently playing in the Olympics. She is an amazing player and has been one of my biggest role models for a while.

I am working hard preparing myself for college.

9. Who is your role model in life?

My mother, Andi Adams, has made a huge impact on how I am as a person and softball player and always knows how to push me and make me a better person in any and everything I do.

10. What is your favorite memory from your time in Fort Dodge schools?

Winning the state title this previous summer has been the highlight of my high school career as an athlete and as a student making it onto homecoming court was a cool experience.
