Support My Journey to Team USA – and Beyond

I’ve been given the opportunity to attend my National Team Selection Camp, and it’s a big step toward competing at a higher level and chasing my goal of one day representing Team USA.

My Story

I started playing water polo when I was 9 years old and immediately fell in love with the sport. Since then, it’s taken me on a journey I never could have imagined. I won my first Junior Olympics at 12 and had the opportunity to compete in the Pan American Games at 14, which were both huge milestones for me.

Water polo has also taken me beyond just competition. It gave me the chance to live in Croatia for a year and experience different cultures, and I’ve been able to travel to places like Spain, Malta, and Montenegro because of it.

It’s more than just a sport to me. It’s something that’s shaped who I am and continues to push me to grow every day.

Why Your Support Matters

As part of this journey, I’m raising support to help fund training, coaching, and development opportunities, both for me and for other athletes working toward their goals. Your support directly helps make opportunities like this possible.

Looking Ahead

This page will stay with me throughout the 2026 ODP season, including NTSC and future Pipeline experiences. If I’m selected for additional training camps or international competitions, I’ll continue updating my journey here as I work toward the next level.

Join My Team

If you'd like to be part of my journey, I would truly appreciate your support.  Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference. Thank you for being part of my journey and my team.
