The 22-year-old can cover midfield and attack and provides back-up to the squad following the withdrawal of the injured pair of Megan Campbell (ankle) and Denise O’Sullivan (knee).
Philadelphia-born Dee Bradley will also train with the squad in Ohio, but won’t be available for selection against the US.
The Durham defender links up with Carla Ward’s side for the first time and qualifies to represent Ireland through her Donegal-born father and Cork-born mother.
