Morse grew up playing street hockey in the cul-de-sac of her Westfield, New Jersey neighborhood.

She soon began taking ice skating lessons and began playing in a local co-ed recreational team, but wouldn't join a competitive hockey team until she was 11 due to a lack of ice hockey programs for girls in her area.

[1][2] During high school, she attended the National Sports Academy in Lake Placid, New York and played four seasons with the school's women's ice hockey team in the Junior Women's Hockey League (JWHL).

[5] She moved up to becoming a roster player for the team in the 2017–18 season, in which she picked up her first career NWHL goal and helped the Riveters to their first Isobel Cup victory.

Outside of hockey, she worked full-time in marketing in Manhattan until she laid off when her role was cut due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its financial implications for her employer.
