Their story
From the field to the mentor's seat
In my hockey career I collected 4 state championships with the East Coast Wizards and one regional championship with the CT Polar Bears. My CT Polar Bears team made 2 USA Hockey National Tournament appearances. I was lucky enough to be selected for the 2022 USA Hockey U16/U17 National Development Camp in Minnesota. At Exeter, I received All-NEPSAC honorable mention in the 2023-2024 hockey season. In my lacrosse career, I received All-NEPSAC Honorable Mention for lacrosse in the 2022 and 2024 seasons and team MVP my 2024 season. I graduated Exeter receiving the Paul & Ruth Sadler ‘23 cup which is awarded every year to the member of the senior class who best combines the highest standards of character and leadership with excellence in her studies and in athletics.
Why they mentor
“I know firsthand the struggles that come with being a student-athlete chasing your own version of perfection. Through my high school career and first two years of college lacrosse, I've been fortunate to have incredibly strong support systems around me who genuinely believed in me. There have been countless moments where I found myself overthinking or doubting my abilities, and without the people in my corner pushing me to be the best version of myself, I wouldn't the person I am today. That experience taught me something equally important which is to believe in myself without seeking validation from others. The resilience it takes to be a student-athlete is real, and it's not something you should have to figure out alone. My goal is to help people recognize their own value and truly believe in themselves!”
