The team aspects of the game. I love working with people, and you really get to do that in basketball.
I was a big AI [Allen Iverson] fan and a Kobe [Bryant] fan. And my dad taught me to watch Cheryl Miller, because of her talent and her competitiveness.
My parents. I’m blessed to have come from a two-parent household. They’re not perfect, but they’ve been who they are consistently, which I really admire. They always have been there for me and my sister, and they challenged us to be independent, strong women.
The Law School bridge. I lived in East Campus and crossed it every day. You can see the city, and bridges are what connect places.
Good Will Hunting. It makes you think and teaches you about relationships and dynamics.
I’m just starting House of the Dragon. I’m definitely a big Game of Thrones fan. That was probably the last series I watched intently.
Do Hard Things by Steve Magness. It’s about what actual real toughness is.
Going where I can be active in nature and unplugged. I love hiking, mountains, lakes, beaches. One of my favorite places that I’ve been is Croatia.
My grandmother, for sure; she was such an important influence in my life with her kindness and generosity. Kobe, whom I totally looked up to as a basketball player. The third would be either Oprah Winfrey or Mother Teresa; I’d love to hear their perspectives on life.
