I think that um when it comes to the University of Wisconsin, I mean, we have our own NIL director here who is being able to connect us with other brands and although I haven't used that personally, I think that a lot of my other teammates have and have also had very positive experiences with it . to be a role model is I'm really getting to be maybe even the first time a little girl has looked at a division one athlete playing softball . I think whether they're, you know, young, they're just starting out, starting in the T-ball stage, or they're getting up to the point where they're being recruited, I think regardless, I am going to be able to reach athletes at that stage and give them not only a um encouragement, but also let them look at a raw story of somebody who has gone through the recruiting process, who is doing NIL uh deals, who is, you know, pursuing a difficult degree .

I think that being a role model in that sense where I am at now, I think gives a lot of girls encouragement in, you know, pursuing their dreams, whether that be in a at a high level division one softball school or at a D3 school and variety of majors . Just being able to say that it you you can do hard things and that you can achieve your dreams .
It's you have to advocate for yourself in getting the help that you need . I would say that I have overall had a very positive um experience with NIL . I am involved in a couple of different NIL deals here where I have been able to create my own clothing brand .
I would say that I have overall had a very positive um experience with NIL . I am involved in a couple of different NIL deals here where I have been able to create my own clothing brand . Well, not my own clothing brand, but be a part of a company called Athletes Threads .
So overall, I've had a very positive experience with it .
