Biographies
2006-2007
I had never touched a disc before coming to Pitt. My neighbor freshman year in Towers was Jake Symoniak, who played A his freshman year. He was the first to really introduce me to the game of Ultimate. Jake captained B his second year with ESN and encouraged me to come out and play. Basically, I’ve been hooked ever since. I was pretty awful when I started playing, but luckily my skills from soccer quickly transferred over and I’m now playing alongside some of the best.

I know some players don’t think they can play with their schoolwork and other activities, but the key is to manage your time well. I have 3 majors, pre-med, on the SHAC board for the Honors College, volunteer, do research, and play for ESN. Manage your time and anything is possible.

I’m looking forward to kill some teams this season.

HARD WORK.
