I am a student athlete at the University of Missouri. I play volleyball and have outside interest in anything that involves me being creative. I love to tell stories that inspire people. Back in 2019 I suffered a brain hemorrhage that hospitalized me for almost 2 months. During that time I had to relearn how to walk and do basic motor function skills. Through that hard time I learn to be resilient, and now I love to share my story with anyone willing to listen. https://dailyorange.com/2021/03/after-brain-surgery-naomi-franco-syracuse-lineup/ https://bvmsports.com/2022/05/19/naomi-franco-overcame-brain-hemorrhage-to-play-volleyball-for-syracuse/ https://www.citrustv.com/sports/on-the-bench/articles/from-paralyzed-to-playing-volleyball-in-15-months-the-story-of-naomi-franco/
