Early life and high school

Pagán was born in New London, Connecticut. Pagan began playing basketball at age 10 after her father signed her up to New London's local recreation league.[7] She went to high school at Marine Science Magnet High School but was allowed to play high school basketball at New London High School because Marine Science Magnet High School did not have a basketball team.[8] Pagán played for New London from 2014 to 2017.
