I began playing lacrosse in the fourth grade. Like most kids, I played all over the field in that first year. I have little fear, and I don't shy away from a challenge, so being a goalie was right up my alley. Around that time, I was diagnosed with Dyslexia. I took on the challenge of learning to read with the same attitude as learning to be a lacrosse goalie. With focus and hard work, I can do anything. Although I struggled in school for a couple of years, I have managed to overcome my Dyslexia and earn a 4.0 GPA. Besides playing lacrosse, I play soccer, I am a member of the History Club, Italian Club, and the Investment Club at Delbarton.
As a team focused player, I pride myself on being a good teammate and friend. I always give my teammates encouragement and support them. I am an excellent communicator on the field and have great situational awareness. I can switch fields quickly either from the crease or with my foot speed. I direct my defense so that they can be their best. I am a hard worker who never backs down or quits, and always look for opportunities to improve.
I am looking forward to continuing my education and playing lacrosse in college.
