“Keep moving forward”
The second leading cause of deaths for Student Athletes is Suicide. Less than 15% of student athletes reach out for help. So many things in life can consume you until you can’t find any other solution. Sports can be an outlet or a never-ending sinkhole.
Sports have been my outlet and sinkhole. But when it did consume me I became apart of the 15%. I choose to keep moving forward. I choose to rely on my family and friends and the resources given to me through UConn. But two paths don’t have to be the same and I can only hope that other athletes and people choose to move forward.

Hey Jalynn, @tryelectro here! I help run our Athlete Partnerships Team and would love to offer you an NIL Deal. I think you'd be a great fit for our Campaign. Couldn't get a DM through to you, so if you see this, can you shoot us a DM when you get a sec? 🙌
