Player Style:
Hockey – I play strong defensive game and I play aggressively. I pride myself in defending our end of the ice. Offensively, I skate with the puck and like to jump up in the play to create scoring opportunities. One of my best skills is my ability to keep the puck in the offensive end – I do a great job holding the blue line and keeping the offensive pressure applied. I love spending time with my teammates and very much enjoy competing at the highest level in a team environment.
Soccer – I play strike and forward. I love to score goals and help my team win. I have led my teams in scoring many seasons, but the best part of my game is my ability to see the field and make strong passes to teammates. Assisting a goal scored gives me the same amount of enjoyment as scoring a goal does.
Track – I love to run fast! I compete in sprint events individually and as a teammate. I have won several gold medals
