Played soccer when she was younger and was encouraged to play lacrosse because of her speed by a friend's father who was a high school lacrosse coach; began playing lacrosse in fourth grade
On why she chose Ohio State: "At a young age, when I was addicted to wall-ball and running, I told my parents I could never get tired of this sport. Forty-nine people in my bloodline have gone to Ohio State and I've grown up in the environment of Scarlet and Gray my whole life. In middle school I started thinking about where to play at the next level and without a doubt, I couldn't see myself going anywhere else. The passion, honor and love I have for this school is unmatched and I feel so proud to be able to represent this sport and call myself a Buckeye."
