Where are you at right now?
I am at home in La Porte, IN
How are you interacting with your teammates?
I am interacting with my teammates through text message, facetime, snapchat, zoom meetings, and groupme.
What are you doing for workouts?
I am running outside a lot, doing yoga, jump rope workouts, body exercises, and more.
What advice would you give your fellow Hoosiers during this time?
Do something you've always wanted to do (read a book, paint, learn how to play an instrument, etc.). Do something you haven't gotten the time to do in your life, because before you know it your life will speed back up again and the time you had to try something new has passed.
What are you most looking forward to when you get back on the court?
Cherishing every moment I have left with my teammates and my coaches. Time is valuable and so is being present in the moment. Before I know it, my last season is going to fly by and I don't want to look back with any regrets. I want to enjoy the time I have left as a Hoosier and share those moments with my family (aka my team and staff).
How has the adjustment gone to online classes?
The adjustment isn't too bad. A lot of assignments and projects are submitted online in the first place so it's nothing out of the ordinary, but it's been a little different having my in-person classes online and how things are being formatted. Overall not too hard to adjust too, just have to stay on top of my work.
What gives you encouragement and motivation during this time?
My teammates, coaches, family, and friends give me motivation and encouragement during this time. The people in my ecosystem lift each other up on the daily and look at the brighter side of things in this situation and that makes me motivated to do the same.
What is something you and your family are doing to pass the time?
We have gone on runs, walks, watched movies, did puzzles, cooked/baked and started home projects.
What shows are you watching?
I have watched and finished a lot of shows over the past few weeks. To name a few I have watched tiger king, this is us, on my block, all american and I currently just started new girl (which I would highly recommend).
What is your major and what are your future career plans?
My major is human biology and after undergrad I want to go to nursing school to become a nurse practitioner and work in a pediatric setting.
