Summary
Division I student-athlete and Economics student at Santa Clara University with a lifelong passion for athletics, fitness, fashion, and an active lifestyle. As a collegiate baseball player, I have developed strong discipline, teamwork, communication, and time-management skills while balancing the demands of academics and high-level athletics. Experienced working with children through baseball camps in Los Angeles and San Jose, volunteering with an adaptive baseball program for children with disabilities, and serving the local community through volunteer work supporting individuals experiencing homelessness. I have grown up wearing athleisure and activewear in my everyday life while also enjoying dressing up and developing my personal style. I bring an energetic, approachable, dependable, and team-oriented personality and would be excited to create a positive customer experience as part of the Vuori team.
