As a dental student, I'm deeply passionate about promoting oral health and education within the Philadelphia community. Although I'm still a year away from treating my own patients, I actively volunteer with organizations dedicated to expanding access to care. This summer, I took part in a community health internship aimed at empowering underserved populations to take charge of their oral health by equipping them with the knowledge and resources they need to do so.
Visiting the Ronald McDonald House in New Orleans the day before the Super Bowl was my favorite appearance of the season. It was incredibly meaningful to connect with the children and their families, hear their powerful stories, and share a few smiles ahead of the big game. I loved that we were able bring a little piece of Philadelphia with us—Philly cheesesteaks and pretzels— and provide them with joy and laughter during a tough time. It was an experience I'll never forget.
Stepping onto the field at the Linc for the first time was a moment I'll never forget. Feeling the energy and excitement of the fans—it truly felt like a dream come true. That night marked the beginning of so many unforgettable moments during the 2024 season, and I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunities and experiences that being an Eagles Cheerleader has given me.
When I'm not dancing or studying, I love spending time with my family and friends, exploring the city, and going to sporting events, musicals, and concerts. I'm also an avid reader and enjoy trying out new recipes in the kitchen!
My father is a college football coach, so I've been a football fan for as long as I can remember. I attended my first game at just six days old and have spent most of my fall weekends in stadiums across the country. I continued that tradition in college, dancing on the sidelines of Hard Rock Stadium as a University of Miami Sunsation.
Favorite exercise other than dancing:
Running along the Schuylkill River has become one of my favorite ways to stay active. I love how running makes me feel—it's not only a great workout, but also a fun way to explore the city. I also enjoy lifting weights and mixing things up with different workout classes, including HIIT, yoga, and Pilates.
