I aspire to be the first woman on Team USA's wheelchair rugby Paralympic roster. I was recently named as a breakout performer on the Road to Paris in 2023. At the 2023 Parapan American Games, I was part of the team that claimed gold, securing our spot at the 2024 Paralympic Games. Outside of wheelchair rugby, I am a full-time professor of Occupational Therapy at Saint Louis University. My journey in wheelchair rugby began in 2013, evolving into a passion despite a 2016 Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis during my graduate studies at Washington University in St. Louis.
