About Me: 

Hi, my name is Gia Peterson, and I am a member of the Class of 2028 at Brookfield Academy. I have been a varsity starter both my freshman and sophomore years. This past season, I earned MVP and First Team All-Conference honors, and as a freshman, I received All-Conference Honorable Mention.

My goal is to play basketball at the collegiate level. I am a dedicated and hardworking athlete who consistently pushes myself to improve and compete at a high level. I began playing basketball in 6th grade and started AAU in 8th grade. This will be my third season competing with 1on1 Milwaukee.

I play the post position for both my high school and AAU teams. At 6’0”, I continue to develop my post moves while also expanding my shooting range to become a more versatile and well-rounded player.

I was drawn to basketball because of its physicality and competitiveness. Growing up in my dad’s Tae Kwon Do studio helped shape my toughness, discipline, and work ethic. I earned my black belt and am currently working toward my second-degree black belt.

In addition to basketball, I play volleyball and enjoy traveling with my family.
