I have been part of the NCSA family since 2017 both as a recruiting coordinator and as a recruiting specialist. It is hard to quantify the passion that I have for NCSA and its families. I have helped start the recruiting journey for thousands of families across every US state and hundreds more internationally. My belief is that no matter where a young person starts their journey, with the right help and commitment they can reach the same destination: playing collegiately for a school that will set them up for success in life beyond sports. Each and every family I have spoken to has taught me so much about the unique challenges student-athletes face in their pursuit of college athletics, and I feel blessed to help families overcome these challenges head-on!

I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois and played high school soccer for Walter Payton College Prep in addition to playing for several club soccer teams across Illinois. Coming from a single parent family, my mom and I did not have the knowledge needed to successfully tackle the recruiting process, but I still had an incredible college experience playing club soccer and studying Philosophy at Drexel University in Philadelphia. My own struggles in the recruiting process motivate me to ensure all families have the tools they need to succeed regardless of their background.

Today I live in the Andersonville neighborhood of Chicago with my two dogs: Bonnie and Louise. In my free time you can find me running along Lake Michigan, volunteering for Make-A-Wish Illinois, and rooting for the Chicago Bulls.
