Director of Operations
“The people I meet through Oakland Lacrosse Club are just the best. I love working here because every day I get the chance to build authentic, caring relationships with and among the Oakland community that help build a network of unconditional love and support for all. Plus I get to expose young people to the sport that gave me so much at that age, it’s extremely rewarding, and fun!”
