About Me

I have lived in New Jersey for my entire life. I spent the majority of my life as a resident in Manalapan, in Monmouth County.

I attended Manalapan High School where I was a student of the Science and Engineering Magnet Program and graduated as valedictorian. Additionally, in high school, I was a four-year three-sport varsity letter winner in soccer, basketball, and track & field. I was captain for each of these sports as a senior.

I have three younger siblings who attend Manalapan High School as well. We have all played club soccer for the majority of our lives.

I currently attend Duke University, intending on majoring in Biomedical Engineering.

Current Classes

I am currently taking EGR 103, EGR 101, CHEM 110, and MATH 218-D2.

Soccer

I started playing soccer at six years old. In my first season playing, I broke my wrist, promising to never play again. However, my parents convinced me to give it another shot a year later. I soon joined a travel team where I developed skills and soccer IQ. I later switched from my travel team to an academy team, where I considered pursuing playing in college.

Going into high school, I made varsity as a freshman. Throughout my high school career, I started in center defense every single game. My senior year, I was named captain of the team. Our record was 15-3, and, at the end of the season, we were ranked 4th in the state, having only lost to the #1 team in the state three times over.

At Duke, I plan on playing club soccer.
