POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

To say that sports has shaped my life would be an understatement. And along the way, sports has introduced me to the most amazing friends. Proud of these friendships and these incredible women. Fun to bring this special group together to watch @gophervolleyball take on Meeeshegan and work their way to a win.

I can’t get over how wonderful tonight was—and what a privilege it was to share the space with these incredible women.

Celebrating extra hard because this is what I get to do with my life—and I couldn’t be more grateful.

A wistful goodbye to the 2026 Minnesota Lynx season 💙💚

I couldn’t have dreamed of a more captivating and electric season for my first in the TV pxp seat and it delivered ten fold. I got to take in exquisitely beautiful basketball and watch the story of a young sensation unfold while also working with awesome friends all season long.

Thanks so much for tuning in this season!
