Beaver Reflections:
I graduated from Beaver in 2014 and had a great time. It was a sizable change coming from a public school, but I had a great opportunity to attend Beaver. I was able to meet a lot of people, broaden my horizons, and embrace the supportive learning environment. Looking back, the soccer coach, Coach Schecter, had a positive impact on me and my playing style. One of the best parts of my day was at the end when I could go out, play soccer, be with my friends, and represent my school. I was also part of the student council which allowed me to give back and bring the community together.

What is #happeningnow in your life:
After graduating from Beaver I went to Bentley University where I studied marketing and minored in supply chain management. After that, I went to work for a developer in Boston that built apartments. I was fortunate enough to jump on the team for Suffolk Downs, a huge project in East Boston and Revere where hundreds of acres of land are being developed. I was there for a couple of years but ended up leaving during the pandemic. Now, I have found my passion in real estate, received my real estate license, and now am a full-time real estate agent with Custom Home Realty. Along with that, I coach soccer on the side, which gives me a chance to still maintain that connection with the sport I loved at Beaver.

“Through soccer, student council, and many other extracurricular activities, I had the chance to grow not only as a student and athlete but also as a person while learning valuable life lessons.”
