2020 Spotlight
2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My love for soccer has been since the 5th grade. If I am not playing, I am training. I am highly self disciplined, motivated, humble, coachable, with a strong desire to win and passionate about the game. Every team I have played on, I have been the most hard working and skillful player on the team. My ability and willingness overcomes any obstacle. This sets me apart from the myriad of fellow players. In my years of playing I have been instrumental in taking a travel team to higher levels of play every season. Because of my skills, characteristics and achievements I was recruited by IMG academy to play in the MLSNEXT league in 2020. My move to MLSNEXT has only fueled my desires to play high level competitive soccer. I am looking forward to the camaraderie, knowledge and diligence needed for a college team to excel. I strive to improve and never stop working. Therefore, I am confident I will make an exceptional student athlete in your program and look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you for looking at my profile.
