I began playing lacrosse in fifth grade. I play for Pittsburgh Premier Lacrosse Club and the varsity lacrosse team at Pine-Richland high school. I started 11/14 games played as a sophomore on the Varsity team. And at the end of our season, was given the "most coachable and patient player on defense" award by my head coach. In 2021 I played on Western PA's team in the US National Tournament. My preferred position is defensive midfielder. However, I am very versatile and open to playing any position I am needed for. I am an extremely success/future driven athlete on and off the field as well as in the classroom, with the goal of becoming a collegiate athlete being a main source of my motivation. Playing 6 sports from the age of 7, I have always been very competitive, valued the "we not me" aspect of sports, and have loved being a part of a team. Growing up with a big family, I have always enjoyed being close to and supporting my teammates no matter what. In addition to lacrosse, I participate in cross-fit and I am a World Championship level Irish dancer. I am currently ranked eighth in the Mid-America region and thirteenth in North America. At the beginning of my freshman year of high school, I decided to focus on lacrosse.
