A slugging percentage of .501, an on-base percentage of .405, and a total fielding percentage of .972. Weights and conditioning were also an important aspect in my overall performance. I excelled in the weight room, holding records in Bench Press, Hang Clean, Back Squat, and Deadlift. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice from UTEP. I continued my education at Arizona State University where I earned a Master's Degree in Criminal Justice from Watts College of Public Service and Community Solutions. During my four years at UTEP, I earned multiple scholastic and athletic honors, including: C-USA Player and Hitter of the Week (05/07/2018) 2017 UTEP Softball Most Valuable Player 2017 All-C-USA Second Team 2017 C-USA Preseason Team C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll (2015, 2016, 2017, 2018) NFCA Scholar-Athlete (2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17) UTEP GPA: 3.69 ASU GPA: 3.36 Prior to UTEP, I played high school softball at Chatsworth Charter High School in Los Angeles, California.

Not only do I believe in the physicality of the athlete, but I place an emphasis on the mentality an athlete needs in order to be successful. I ensure that the athletes that I work with are prepared for adversity, hardships, the game, and most importantly, life.
