Person I most admire: “There are two people I admire. The first is Katie Sampson. I have been going to the Katie Samson festival for years, and have even played a few times in it. Her story is very motivational and inspires me everyday to play the game I love. She is a great example of perseverance and dedication that has led to the festival’s success and her ongoing legacy. Another person I admire is my grandfather, Buddy.  He has not only been the team’s good luck charm this season (we have won every game he has attended this season – especially playoff games), but is also the smartest and kindest man I know, and I just hope I can be as successful and compassionate as he is.”

Born: Sept. 30, 1998 in Providence, RI.

Family members: Karen (mom), Dave (dad), Jud (brother), Josie (sister), and Jet (dog).
