As an undergraduate, I brought a legal action under the then-new Title IX statute against UCONN to compel the creation of its women’s varsity soccer program. I went on to become a first-team Division I All-American, was selected to be on the first U.S. National Women’s Team, and spent 10 years as Head Coach of the Yale women's soccer team.   I have my Ph.D. in Education/Sports Psychology.. After retiring from my soccer career, I served as an Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) for ten years after beginning my legal career at two prestigious firms (Sullivan and Cromwell in NYC, and Zeldes, Needle and Cooper in Bridgeport, CT) and then clerking for two federal judges. In my capacity as an AUSA, I prosecuted cases in both the National Security and Major Crimes unit and the Violent Crimes and Narcotics unit.. I handled a wide range of cases including: domestic and international money laundering, bank and social security fraud, bank robberies, environmental and immigration issues, identity theft, government fraud, wire fraud, counterfeiting, drug distribution and gun violations, cyber crime, and child pornography. My work on these and other cases ran the full spectrum from investigation, to jury trials, to arguing appeals before the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals. I also served as the Outreach Coordinator for Violent Crimes and the Re-Entry Coordinator. In these roles, I worked closely with local and state law enforcement agencies and community leaders as well as federal law enforcement officials on crime prevention and issues surrounding re-entry from incarceration.
