In Her Own Words:
I ran track growing up and competed in the Junior Olympics. I then played rugby in college including a couple of all-star teams
.
I found football when my cousin dared to me try out for football if she tried out for rugby and I became addicted right away. I loved the feeling that my teammates were my family and that when we step out onto the field we have each other’s back no matter what.
I am the oldest of five kids and have two nieces and a nephew. I feel lucky to be able to show them that with hard work you can achieve your dreams. My family is extremely supportive and they go to all my games that they can go to. When they can’t make it, they stream the games online. After the games, my nieces and nephews call me and tell me they watched and cheered for me.
It is my goal to help pave the way for future generations of women who want to play football.
