I think really allowing myself to dive fully into the process of the periodization of training that we do, so fall training and then going into indoor and outdoor, it's all really important in developing speed and getting to where you want to be.In 2022, Steiner was named the recipient of the track and field version of the Honda Sports Award, presented annually to the most outstanding college athlete in each of 12 NCAA Division I women's sports.

[11] She also received the 2022 Southeastern Conference scholar-athlete of the year awards for both indoor and outdoor women's track.

She has been accepted to UK's physical therapy program, but is deferring her enrollment to concentrate on her professional track career.
