Soccer has always been my passion. To fulfill this dream our family moved when I was 12 years old from Massachusetts to San Diego. For the last 2 and a half years I have been living in a soccer academy residency program. Being away from my family since the age of 14 taught me the value of hard work, teamwork, responsibility, and most of all leadership. These values have helped me to be not only successful on the pitch but in school as well. After winning last year the Arizona State Championship, I became the captain of my soccer team, using my leadership to benefit our team on and off the field. As a player who is a leader and hard worker, I believe I will be a great addition to your team
