About Me
Student-Athlete
In 2022, I came to Lakeland College in the fall to play on the Women's Volleyball Team. Being a student-athlete I have gained many skills, including; time-management skills, and the importance of teamwork. Playing on a team has shaped my perspective on putting your teammates first and playing for them instead of yourself. It has forced me to manage my time, as I juggle schoolwork, practice, and workouts. It has also emphasized the importance of having respect for all those around you, even if you have different beliefs.
Volunteering
I aspire to help others. Volunteering is one way that allows me to do this. While in grade 12, I volunteered to help in the grade 2 classroom at my school. I also coached grade 6 and grade 7 girl's volleyball. This included running practice and drills.
The Rustlers Women's Volleyball Team takes an active role in the community. My team takes part in Operation Christmas Child every year. This involves filling shoeboxes with items and sending them to children in different places around the world to ensure everyone has something to open on Christmas. My team also volunteers with coaching and running Rustler Volleyball camps to foster the growth of young athletes.
Hobbies
One important aspect of my life is living an active lifestyle. In my summers I enjoy working out, going on walks, golfing, and playing on a Recreational Softball team. I also spend a lot of time at my lake with my family.
SELF CARE
My Wellness Plan
As an educator, I recognize the importance of self-care. I want to be the best version of myself so I can positively impact my future students. To ensure this I must prioritize my physical and emotional wellbeing.
- Getting one hour of physical activity every day (going to the gym, going on walks, etc).
- Eating a healthy balanced diet.
- Maintaining a regular sleep schedule to ensure I get 8 hours every night.
- Scheduling time to spend with family and friends to maintain healthy relationships.
- Create relationships with my colleagues to build a network of support and improve work satisfaction.
