I started playing lacrosse in 2nd grade, for fun, to complement competitive swimming (was junior olympic qualifier), which was my primary sport at the time. By the time I was in 8th grade I had decided I would focus on lacrosse as I really enjoyed the team sport aspect it offered me. I was in a K-12 school through 8th grade and was able to play for our high school varsity lacrosse team in grades 6 through 8. By my freshman year, now at a larger public school, I was ready to take a lead role on our team. As a lead attacker for my team I enjoy assisting as much as I do scoring myself. In school this junior year I am taking AP Computer Science, AP US History, and AP English Language and Composition, sophomore year I took AP World History, and AP Human Geography, freshman year I took AP Environmental Science. I am also in clubs such as Junior Statesman of America (JSA), DECA (entrepreneurship club), KIDS CAN (helping children with cancer), National Honor Society, and Rho Kappa. I like to give my time helping children less fortunate than I am by volunteering for a local charity in my town called Beverly's Angels. I am also a certified lifeguard with CPR/AED/First Aid training.
