I could not be more ecstatic to represent the USA at Junior World Cup. Being a part of the Third Team has brought so many different experiences and adventures but more importantly lifelong friends from around the world doing what we love…and for that, I am forever grateful.

I am honored to be appointed to this edition of the Junior World Cup. It has been a lifelong goal to go to a World Cup and being able to go back to an amazing country like Malaysia to do it is special. I cannot wait for the unique test that the JWC will provide. To be able to represent the USA and PAHF at this event to showcase the skill we have in our region is a great testament to how the game is growing in this country.

I am very excited for the opportunity to not only represent USA Field Hockey, but also the PAHF region at the inaugural Hockey5s World Cup in Oman. Representing USA Field Hockey at the international level is always something in which I take great pride. I have been fortunate enough to experience this version of our sport over the past few years thanks to the Field Hockey Federation in Moorpark playing Hockey5s during their fall league play. This has allowed me the opportunity to gain knowledge of this version of our sport that will serve me well in my appointment. I am incredibly grateful to FIH for this appointment, as well as my family for their continued encouragement, love, and support.

It is an honor to be selected to the first FIH Hockey5s World Cup, which will be held in Oman. I fell in love with Hockey5s in Jamaica and find it very fast and exciting. I can see that Hockey5s will help grow the game throughout the world and in the USA. I look forward to being a part of the growth and sharing my passion for hockey. I have been fortunate to have the support of my family and the USA Field Hockey family which has afforded me to continue my involvement over the years.I am truly grateful for the friendships I have built in the USA and throughout the world that have supported my hockey career.
