I was introduced to the game by my mom, who had played in high school and college. She has been a huge inspiration to me throughout my lacrosse career. Right from the start I fell in love with the game, and that continued to grow the longer I played. I played many sports when I was younger, but none of them “clicked” as well as lacrosse did.
Being an athlete has taught me leadership and self-discipline, which are important qualities on and off the field. Being part of a team allows me to push myself along with my teammates in order to bring out the best in everyone.
I am looking for a highly academic college that has a strong engineering program. I have always been interested in math and science in school, so I think this major would be a good fit for me. I come from a family where science and engineering majors are very prevalent. I am also looking for a school with a lacrosse program that will challenge me every day in order to bring out my best, and has a team environment in which I would flourish.
