GROWING THE GAME
I've loved baseball since I was three years old. Usually, I am the only person that looks like me playing in high school or travel ball. Therefore, I am interested in growing the game in the Black community as well as showing younger girls that they can play baseball with boys or on girls only teams. My advocacy to increase representation on the field for girls and women can be seen on and off the field, including participation in SABR Conferences, MLB Develops events, and even at the 2024 World Series, where I was proud to represent the USA Women's National Baseball team. Additionally, I am interested in partnering with community centers and youth leagues help to increase participation in the sport.
