I am a Sports Media major at Ithaca College with a minor in Advertising, Public Relations, Marketing, and Communications. I am also a junior on the Ithaca College women’s basketball team. Outside of academics and athletics, I am a big foodie and love supporting brands, both local and beyond. I am also a member of our college’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, where I am involved in community outreach, team event planning, mental health awareness initiatives, and other efforts to support student-athletes. I come from a small, community-focused town in Rhode Island, where supporting local businesses and giving back to the community are a big part of the culture. I stay involved in my community by coaching young girls’ basketball teams and running my own basketball training programs, which have allowed me to build strong connections with young athletes and their families.
