HIGH SCHOOL/CLUB: Two-time CIF State Champion (2018, 2020) at Gabrielino High School in San Gabriel. First team All CIF 2020. Dean's List 2017-2021. State Cup Champion with Club Team LA Surf (2018).
PERSONAL:Â Parents are Pertonila & Ladislado Villa. Has three sisters: Carmen, Lorena, Samantha.Â
Chose UCSC because she "felt that UCSC could help broaden my understanding in the STEM field and explore different paths I could take in the future. I would also get to continue playing soccer and challenge myself mentally and physically."
Says her club coach, Francisco Lopez, is the most influential person in her life because "he's coached me since I was six and has taught me everything I know about soccer. His faith in me not only as player and as a person has always pushed me to become better as an individual on and off the field."
In her spare time she collects pins as well as other "random knick knacks."
