Favorite Basketball Memory Growing Up: My favorite basketball memory growing up was being the MVP of my 8th grade recreational team. We were in the finals for our region that year, and although we did not win, it was great knowing that my passion and hard work helped in getting our team as far as the finals!
Opinion of the impact the Mercury has on the community: The World Champion Phoenix Mercury has a big impact on the community. Not only do we have the best product on the court, we have an unbelievable organization as a whole that reaches out to the community through camps, events, and charity programs to help support our community.
The importance the Mercury brings to young girls: Having a role model is one of the most important parts of adolescence. The Phoenix Mercury are not just basketball players, they are young women who have become successful through hard work, dedication, and ambition. Being able to expose your daughters to these players and this organization is something they will take with them as they continue to grow into successful young women.
Favorite Mercury moment: My favorite moment was at the first every Mercury game that I had been to. I was lucky enough to be sitting courtside with a few of my co-workers. DT and Kelly miller were running down the court on a fast-break when the ball was knocked out of bounce and into my hands! I tossed the ball back to Diana; it was the first moment that I realized I was going to a part of an excellent organization and also a part of history!!
Why is a Mercury ticket program great for local businesses? Phoenix Mercury ticket programs provide fun AND affordable entertainment. What better way to show appreciation for you clients/customers than to bring them to see WORLD CHAMPIONS. Not only can you entertain your top clients by providing them with an all inclusive experience at Mercury games, you can also entertain employees, referral sources, and their families!!

Favorite Basketball Memory Growing Up: Before high school, I played hours and hours of basketball on the driveway with my dad. He would rebound for me and would make me try to post him up. I remember getting soo frustrated at times, but looking back, he pushed me to be great. I wouldn’t have missed those hours for anything.
Opinion of the impact the Mercury has on the community: We have some of the best women in the league on the Mercury: as players but also as people. The players on our team genuinely care about their fans and are involved in many community outreach activities throughout the season. It’s an incredible sight to see kids’ eyes light up as they get a high five from one of their favorite WNBA players.
The importance the Mercury brings to young girls: When the WNBA came into existence, I told my mom, “I’m going to be in the WNBA.” Even though I’m not playing, my dream has come true. There are currently thousands of young girls with that same dream, and the league gives them something to reach for… on AND off the court.
Favorite Mercury moment: I was fortunate enough to be in Detroit for the Championship this past season, and I sat next to our General Manager, Ann Meyers Drysdale, for the game. Near the end of the game, Ann asked me to hold onto her ticket because she “didn’t have pockets and was going to want to keep the ticket.” I realized at that moment we were about to make history. I still get goose bumps thinking about it!
Why is a Mercury ticket program great for local businesses? Everyone loves watching a winner, and just think how much you could be paying to get this close to the action for different teams around the Valley. Where else can you get courtside seats, valet parking, drinks AND dinner for you clients, employees or yourself for under $100/ticket?!
