   Briana ...
      ... is a redshirt freshman from Rancho Cucamonga, CA.
         ... is a psychology major.
            ... wants to learn how to ride a motorcycle and fly a plane.
               ... does not like feet or cats.
                  ... played club-level soccer for 13 years.
If Briana could witness any event, she would love to witness a speech from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. or Malcolm X.
Her favorite quote is: "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude."
She would never be caught dead at a Laker's game. "Go Clippers!"
Briana's greatest achievement so far in life was winning CIF for girls' soccer her senior year of high school as captain.
Five years from now, Briana hopes to be starting her career in professional sports as a director of game operations, a sports agent, or a sports psychologist.
