Extra Curricular Activities

I found my love for lacrosse in the 4th grade. I grew up with my Dad playing and after completing my 1st degree blackbelt in Taekwondo, I decided to try it out myself. I played a season for a recreation team and decided to tryout for a club level program that spring. I have been a defensive player for my club teams (Rockfish, API and The Sidewinders) for the past 11 years and have been a defensive captain for 4. I also play for my Varsity high school team as a middie and attack and have been a Varsity Captain for the past 2 years. Team practice for school is every day and club practice was 3 times a week with tournaments and showcases. I started to weight train and body build in my 9th grade year and found a true passion for it- I want to go to college for Sports Medicine and Physical Therapy.


I am also a participating member of my local 4H program, the Linthicum High Riders, for the past 15 years and help during horse shows with jump set up and take down. I also volunteer my time at a farm in Bowie, MD feeding and caring for 70 horses before Church every Sunday.
