I was born and raised in Palmdale, CA to Tony and Christine, my amazing parents and also my incredible support system. I am an only child, but have a wonderful extended family with tons of cousins who inspired me to play ball. I can honestly say that I would not be where I am today without my family!

My love for the game started at a very early age beginning with Little League. From there, I played rec-ball, and travel ball for Marty Tyson and the Corona Angels, and I just recently completed my collegiate career at UCLA. I earned many accomplishments while playing at UCLA, but none greater than becoming a member of Team USA and having the opportunity to represent our great country and compete for the Gold Medal at the Tokyo 2021 Olympics this summer.

In my post collegiate career, I will carry on playing softball professionally and I will continue to give back to my community and others through sport by mentoring and sharing my experiences with youth. The game has given me so much and now it’s my turn to pay it forward. There will certainly be more exciting announcements to come…!
