She is making waves in the basketball community as she has shown to have the same tenacity and skill as her father.

She was a dominant force in her Nike National run, scoring relentlessly. Following her performances, she received many offers from various college programs. In the end, she committed the Louisville Cardinals Women's Basketball team from 2023.
