- How she fell in love with volleyball and found her true place in the sport
- Her initial runs as an indoor player and how she turned a heartbreak from indoor to the most beautiful and decorated career on the sand
- Her most cherished moments, be it success or setback, throughout her career
(O)bjective History
- What technical beach volleyball skills she is most proud of
- What skill every aspiring player should master
- How the importance of technique and reps matter to the elite level
(A)ssessment
- An introspection of her journey and how she may or may not be done with the sport just yet
(P)lan of action
- Her current goals with Beach volleyball after setbacks from the 2020 Olympics as well as the pandemic
