Their story
From the field to the mentor's seat
Growing up, I was always very involved in sports—from soccer and field hockey to golf, and eventually, lacrosse. I instantly fell in love with the fast-paced environment and loved how every game was energetic and exciting. I knew early on that I wanted to take it as far as I could. As I progressed through my lacrosse career, I learned so many valuable lessons about teamwork, leadership, and perseverance.
Why they mentor
“Growing up playing a variety of sports and competing in lacrosse at the collegiate level has taught me a lot about myself and the environment around me. Like any sport, there are ups and downs, and they can be tough to navigate without support from someone who’s been in your shoes. Becoming a mentor gives me the opportunity to give back to the athletic community and support younger athletes as they move through the ever-changing landscape we're all a part of.”
