I started playing lacrosse in 5th grade, in addition to basketball. Lacrosse sparked my interest because of the skill and IQ needed to play the game. This led me to start lifting 6 days a week the summer going into my sophomore year, and the gym has become my escape and happy place. I love playing both ends of the field, and mastering the simple things. Besides lacrosse, academics is a very important aspect of my life. I took AP World freshman year and got a 5 on the AP test. I am currently taking AP English Language and dual credit Intro to Health Care. I had an unweighted GPA of 3.9 and a 4.2 weighted GPA my sophomore year. At my high school I play on the badminton team, participate in German Club and am a member of the National German Honor Society. I volunteer for a charity called Hopes In, and have been participating in Youth and Government since freshman year.
