In her own words:
I wish I could play football for a living, even for just a small amount of money without having to pay to play. After hearing that the US Women’s hockey team fought to receive $70,000 a year it gave me hope.
I believe the work we put into football (even after working a full day), and the high level of success we derive from it are worthy of full professional (paying) status. I would be happy to leave my paying job and make football my full time focus. I’d be passionate to work on my body and image to become the best athlete I can be. We already put everything we have into this sport: our time, our energy, and sacrifice away from family and friends. But I believe financial support would bring our sport to another level altogether. I truly believe in creating more for the women in this sport and I will dedicate everything I can to make progress. That is all and that is my heart.
