I have been playing lacrosse since fourth grade and immediately fell in love with the sport. Throughout grammar school and High School I have played soccer, lacrosse, and basketball. Although I still play varsity Soccer, I have concentrated most of my training and effort on increasing my lacrosse skills. I am very academically driven with a GPA of 4.2 and having various honors and AP classes. My honors classes include Italian, Chemistry, and History while I will be taking AP English and AP bio. Chemistry is one of my favorite classes and I hope to study at a school that offers undergraduate degrees in either medical or nursing. Besides being involved in school and on the field, I love to volunteer. I am able to participate in various optimistic clubs and programs. Two of the clubs I am involved in are Make-a-Wish and Eleventh Hour Rescue. Within these clubs I help engender awareness and collect donations for dogs in need as well as kids with cancer who have one last wish. Along with these clubs, I coach a co-ed rugby team in our town, where I help young boys and girls grow their self confidence and build their athletic ability. I also participate in a town program called REACH. This program allows me to volunteer at the assisted living home and pack bags of food for the homeless in NYC. I look forward to attend a school where I can play the sport I love and continue to be academically challenged.
