I first started playing lacrosse at 14. I was very late to start and extremely behind on all my skill levels compared to everyone else my age, but that never stopped me from working my hardest to become the best version of myself. I played attack when I first started, but as my love grew for lacrosse, I knew I was a defender at heart. My first season playing lacrosse I made my high school's JV team in 8th grade. I worked my hardest everyday to become a stronger player on and off the field, and was honored with the "Most Improved Reward" at the end of my 8th grade season. The summer going into my freshman year I played my first club season with Team Coastal 2025. During that season, my hard work was starting to pay off and my love for lacrosse grew so much. On the second day of tryouts for my high school season, I decided to follow my heart and switched to defense. I made Varsity as a freshman and my team won the State Championship I am a starting defender on Team Coastal 2025, but I can play any position needed. I am a strong on the ball defender and a defensive leader. I am competitive, hard working, and a determined player, as I hold myself to a high standard on the field. My GPA is a 3.87, and this year I'm taking a year-long AP Psychology class to pursue my interest in becoming a Criminal Psychologist. I volunteered for my high school lacrosse camp for grades 3rd-8th grade during the summer.
