I began playing lacrosse at the age of 8 locally, and I joined my club team when I was 13. In my two years as a high school athlete, I started every varsity game as defensive pole during my freshman and sophomore years. I pride myself on playing physical man-on-man defense and shutting down our opponents' best attack man. I have also played for two years on my high school's football team and during my sophomore year I started as a middle linebacker. I received the Rising Star Athletic and Academic Award as a sophomore. I currently hold a 4.5 GPA (weighted). In the 2019-2020 school year, I will be taking AP Calculus, AP Chemistry, AP US History 2, and AP Computer Science Principle. I give back to my community by volunteering for the Challenger Program where I help coach kids with special needs and the Upper Township Recreation Program where I coach a middle school boys' basketball team. My family and I also collect pop tabs to donate to the Ronald McDonald House
