What is a team? What can it do for you? What can you do for a team? What will you contribute to FAU women's tennis?
- I think a team is about being able to push one another to be the best that they can be, not only in tennis but off the court as well. It’s about building relationships and working together to achieve success. I hope that my willingness, passion, and positivity will drive us to fight no matter what the situation is on the court and to never give up.
