## Caption

The new Kaiser Permanent Performance Center is now home to the thornsfc and portlandfirewnba, built with the needs of female athletes in mind.

It’s really impactful to see what this level of investment in women’s sports looks like up close, especially knowing young athletes can now see and believe in what’s possible for themselves.

Portland is setting a new standard for women’s sports, and I’m proud to play a small part in what’s being built.
