3.5 weeks later and I completed collage sketches for each @wpbl_official team. This honestly did help a lot more with my anxiety lately than I thought. Love these teams so much! So ready for year 2! @wpbl_hunters @wpbl_firebells @wpbl_heights @wpbl_queens

Finally finished my @wpbl_hunters team collage sketch! How I went from finding a giant sketch book while killing time before a dr appointment to doing my 1st giant collage sketches for @wpbl_official teams I’m honestly not sure but honestly pretty proud of these even if they aren’t perfect.

I love baseball.

And I think I found a very special place where that love is shared.

The WPBL is filled with people who truly love this game — players, coaches, managers, staff, and, most importantly, fans who support us with incredible passion, energy, and joy.

I have never experienced a place where so many people who love baseball come together like this.

There is a genuine love for the game here. People respect one another, support one another, and want to build something special together. That made the WPBL such a welcoming and meaningful place for me.

My experience here was even more inspiring and special than I ever could have imagined.🏟️

I love the WPBL, and I am so grateful to everyone who gave their time, energy, and heart to make this league a reality. I feel incredibly lucky to have shared this special place with all of you.

This experience has made me want to grow even more — as a player and as a person — so that I can come back stronger next year and in the years to come, and do my part to help make the WPBL even more special.

To everyone who supported us, believed in us, and helped make this season possible: thank you from the bottom of my heart.

The WPBL is truly something special. If you haven’t experienced it yet, I hope you’ll come to a game someday. And if you can’t make it to the ballpark, please watch the games online and support women’s baseball.

Let’s continue building something beautiful together. 🌍⚾️

Thank you, WPBL. 🌻🌿

そして、この歴史的な1年目のシーズンを皆さんと共有できたこと、一選手としてグランドで闘えたこと、嬉しく思います。

また来年も、そしてその先も、今年以上に素晴らしいものを創っていけるように、私自身選手としてさらに成長して帰ってきたいと思います。

Still trying to put into words what this experience has meant to me.

Thank you to the Boston Hunters for giving me the opportunity to chase a dream and be part of the very first WPBL season. From stepping onto the field in America to sharing the clubhouse with so many amazing women, this is something I’ll carry with me forever.

Thank you to everyone who made me feel at home, challenged me, supported me and made this experience so memorable.

Forever grateful for Boston.

24 hours I’ll remember forever. ⚾️📸

Photographing the inaugural 2026 WPBL season in Springfield, Illinois and getting to document the Boston Hunters was a dream come true.

The season may not have ended the way the Hunters wanted it to, but year one was only the beginning.

See you on the sideline. 🎙️

Episode 2 of The Sideline Snapshot is out now — catch the episode to hear all about my trip to Springfield and the story behind these photos.
