Summary

I am a recent graduate of Stony Brook University with a degree in Multidisciplinary Studies: Health Science, Psychology, & Sociology. I played four years of professional D1 lacrosse there as well. The combination of academics and being a collegiate athlete was difficult and the experience has taught me so much about myself and working hard. I am grateful to have been given these opportunities and I have learned many important life lessons that make me an asset to many careers. Balancing school and lacrosse has taught me to excel in time management and setting priorities along with other life lessons. These last four years were filled with experiences that I will continue to use and improve upon throughout my life. I'm constantly discovering new ways to exceed in the things I want to pursue in life. I feel very passionate about anything I do and I always put 110 percent into succeeding. I consider my best quality to be that I am a people person; I love to meet new people and make positive connections.
