I started playing soccer when I was young and fell in love with the game. Ever since, my passion and love for the game has gotten stronger and I started taking it seriously. Living in an area that was far away from places that had club teams, I knew that I needed to sacrifice a lot to play competitively. I soon realized that I needed to work harder than others, so I started to practice and workout all the time. On my high school team, I played center back helping my team go to the regional finals two years straight, only loosing 11 games out of 50, and helping my goalie get the record for least amount of goals conceded in a season which was 20. As I've started to play forward for my club teams, I've adapted a style of play to hold up the ball and keep possession instead of making the hard pass every time or taking on multiple people at a time. Over the years, my work ethic and character has increased, and I'm more motivated then ever to play at the collegiate level where I'll be able to have a lot of playing time and help the program win.
