Beyond my lacrosse skills, I pride myself on being the hardest working player on and off the field.  I currently have a 4.0 GPA and was the only freshman to be named to the varsity field hockey squad (starting as a sophomore). I also run on my  high school's winter track team and have been successful in competing in the 200M and 400M events.  I contribute much of this success to my willingness to work harder than everyone else.   Despite being a 3 sport athlete, I strive to maintain balance in my life.  I am involved with student council, Youth Government and volunteer on a regular basis.  Outside of my activities, I have a great group of friends that I love to hang out with and love to travel with my family.

I strive to be a positive role model to my teammates and younger lacrosse players by conducting myself with humility and grace.  Lacrosse is the one thing in my life that pushes me to be the best I can be, it makes me push myself the way nothing else can.
