Bio

High School/Club: Vasristy Starter Freshman-Senior Year, 2X Basketball State Champion, 2025 State Championship Player of the Game, 24-25 All-Conference Honorable Mention, 23-24 All-Conference, Defensive Player of the Game 2-3 Games at 2024 State Tournament, 2025 All-State Game Participant, 3 Assists Per Game and 4 Steal Per Game

Personal: Daughter of Rachele Gonzales. I have three younger siblings, Analise, Isabel and Ryleigh.

Major: Special Education

Academic Awards: Highschool GPA 4.0, National Honor Society Member Sophomore-Senior Year, Distinguished Principal Honor Roll all Four Years and Secretary Position on Student Council Junior and Senior Year. 

Why NJC? I chose NJC because it offers the perfect balance between staying close to home and still getting the full college experience. Being able to pursue my degree in special education, while remaining near my support system was really important to me. Another major factor in my decision was the oppurtunity to continue playing the sport I love, basketball. I'm incredibly excited to be part of the NJC Basketball program and to grow as both an athlete and a person. From the moment I meant the coaching staff, I felt welcomed and supported and I've really enjoyed getting to know them. I'm also looking forward to building strong bonds with my new teammates. Being part of a new team, with a new group of girls is something I'm truly excited for. I can't wait to hit the court and start this next chapter with them.
