“As an athlete I have many pre-game rituals, such as a specific warm-up I have maintained for years. However, I recently adopted a new ritual that has helped me at soccer: meditation. As a student-athlete, the benefits of better sleep, improved attention, increased concentration, and the ability to control my breathing, help make me better and improve my game.”

Fun Fact: I attended my first baseball game at fours year old and got hit in the ear by a baseball. I recovered without major injuries and got to keep the baseball. Baseball grew to be a shared interest among my family and we attend Rays games often!
