Recruit Profile
Unselfish and very coachable player with good field vision and high level Lacrosse IQ. Dedicated to improving myself as a student and athlete.

I first started playing lacrosse in third grade, and immediately fell in love with the sport. Through Elementary and Middle School I played Lacrosse, Soccer, Basketball and Swimming. I made the decision to focus on my academics and lacrosse in High School, however, I still play basketball in a local Rec league.

I first began playing club lacrosse in Fifth Grade, and played for four Summers with Resolute Lacrosse Club. During the Fall of 2019, my mother was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, and as a family, we decided I should not play club lacrosse during the Summer of 2020. Following her recovery, in August of 2020, I was offered a position on True Ohio's AAA State team and have been playing with them since.

I have played box lacrosse since I was in Fourth grade and have played for Resolute, my High School and now True's box lacrosse teams.

I train in the offseason with Academy Lacrosse, operated by Coaches Adam Stewart (Denison) and Joel Zalesky (Denison).

I am comfortable with my stick in both hands and believe that I have very good field vision. I believe that sharing the ball is one of my strengths. I continue to work on my inside finishing and outside shooting.

I pride myself on being a strong and committed student. I have taken a full slate of Honors courses both my Freshman and Sophomore years, and have maintained over a 4.0 Cumulative GPA.

Both of my parents were collegiate athletes and I believe I want to play lacrosse as part of my college experience.

As a Junior, I don't really know exactly what I am looking for in a school, and am open to looking at different types of schools in different areas of the country. Similarly, I don't yet know what I want to study, but I do know that a strong academic program is important to me.

Being part of a team has always been important to me and some of my favorite memories have come from my time playing lacrosse. I hope I can continue to play beyond my High School years.
