I developed an interest in leadership when I was chosen by my JV Soccer coach, Dan Dufour, to be a captain for my team in my sophomore year in high school. I thoroughly enjoyed being the middle man between my dedicated coach and my hardworking team of girls. The experience I gained from those couple of months as captain really helped me gain confidence in myself and my abilities to lead. When I came back the following year as a Junior on the Jv team, my coach pulled me aside told me how important my leadership on the field would be that year. I took this opportunity very seriously and really looked after my team. I believe my two years as a captain for my JV soccer team really helped me develop an interest in leadership
