About the Marauder 

• Why Millersville: I chose Millersville because of the amazing team atmosphere and competitive program. It was not an easy decision to move internationally, but once I had connected with this team I knew it was something I would love to do! The Millersville field hockey team has been my second family over the past three years, and I am so thankful for all of the opportunities I've had there. I've been truly honored to have been able to study marine biology and play the sport I love at such an outstanding school!

• Off-the-field hobbies: I love to cook and bake in my off time! I also enjoy embroidery and leisure reading.
