I have been playing field hockey since I was five years old. I have been very competitive since a young age. I knew early on that I wanted to play field hockey in college and contribute to field hockey in some way after college. To play at a college that is strong both academically and athletically has always been my dream. A few things I have learned about myself since starting field hockey: I play to win, I work hard on and off the field, I am a leader and I communicate well, I see the field well, and, finally, I really don't like to lose. I can't wait to play at the next level!
