It's pretty cool to kind of see her flourish in that situation and flourish in life. I know there's a lot that could be on her. A lot that could be around her, but she still still comes in and is consistent for her team. So that's huge. You don't see that in a lot of rookies. I'm grateful that she's doing that in her own journey and in her own way.
