I began playing lacrosse at age 10 and have played at the elite club level since. Given my aggressive and competitive nature, my coaches placed me at defense early on. I really like being a defender and feel it’s where I best help my team. My player strengths are my man-on-man and on-field communication. I play varsity lacrosse and soccer in high school as well. Last year, I unfortunately tore my ACL ending my soccer season and halting my lacrosse efforts, but my resilient attitude and work ethic have gotten me back on the field as strong as ever. Although I couldn’t play last season, I joined the varsity lacrosse program as the manager and was the recipient of the Bulldog Leadership and Spirit Award. This award is given the team-player who exhibits the greatest leadership and team spirit on and off the field. I enjoy school and my favorite courses I have taken/took include Chemistry Honors, AP Macroeconomics, Precalculus Honors, and AP Literature. I participate in Health Career Club, Habitat for Humanity, Fed Challenge and volunteer at my school’s blood drive annually. I also work part time as a hostess at a local restaurant.
