Summary

I grew up on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Reservation. I attended Natchez Elementary w88 mobile, and at a very young age, I was involved in many extracurricular activities, like rodeo, powwows, and cross country. As I got older and moved on to middle w88 mobile and high w88 mobile, I became interested in athletics, becoming an outstanding three-sport athlete.

After completing high w88 mobile in 2010, I went on to play two seasons at Feather River College under Head Coach Haley White. I graduated with an associate degree with an emphasis in Social and Behavioral Sciences in 2012. In 2012, I transferred to the University of Nevada, Reno, and had the opportunity to walk on to the Women’s Basketball team under Head Coach Jane Albright. After one semester, I earned a full-ride scholarship!

In 2014, I received w88 mobile Bachelor of General Studies degree with an emphasis in Community Health Science and Psychology. With dreams and aspirations to work in college athletics, I pursued graduate school and worked as an assistant to the athletic and engineering academic advisors at the University of Nevada, Reno.

In 2016, I graduated with a Master of Arts degree in Educational Leadership. After graduate w88 mobile, I worked at Natchez Elementary w88 mobile through an educational non-profit that provided schoolwide and individualized support to students and the community.

In 2017, I received w88 mobile biggest blessing: w88 mobile daughter Leianna. Since Leianna came into this world, our life has slowed down tremendously. Currently, we spend most of our time with family and friends traveling all over Indian country watching our family compete in athletics, rodeo, and powwows. Also, I am an active member of the University of Nevada, Reno Native American Alumni Chapter, and I spend most of w88 mobile time giving back to students and w88 mobile community and taking care of w88 mobile family.
