I’m a sports enthusiast with a knack for making meaningful connections. Growing up I was heavily involved in basketball and football. As a South Carolina Native and lifelong Gamecock, I’ve delved deep into the thrilling world of collegiate and professional sports.

During my time at the University of South Carolina, I found my stride within the Women’s Basketball program. From handling game-day logistics to contributing as part of the practice squad, every moment was a lesson in teamwork and dedication.

Transitioning into the professional scene, I joined the Carolina Panthers’ PR and Communications team. Here, I thrived in the fast-paced environment, coordinating interviews and amplifying the team’s brand visibility.

As President of the University of South Carolina Men’s Club Basketball team, I was more than just a leader; I was a teammate and a friend. Whether it was strategizing for tournaments or celebrating victories, I prioritized fostering a sense of community within the team.

Outside the realm of sports, I enjoy spending time with friends, cooking out on the grill, and watching a good movie; my favorite being The Dark Knight.

Overall, my experiences have sculpted me into a well-rounded individual, equally comfortable on the court as I am engaging with others. Now, at NCSA College Recruiting, I’m thrilled to merge my passion for sports with my knack for forging connections to support student-athletes and their families on their recruitment journey.
