About Myself
US Citizen, Born in Fairfax VA in 2005
Our family relocated to Kenya in 2011. When we arrived in Kenya, I attended an international school called School of the Nations which is an IGCSE, British Curriculum. This was from 2011 To 2022. While at School of the Nations, I enjoyed playing football /Soccer with my classmates which led me to loving the sport. The school was instrumental in my love for the game. At the time of leaving the school, I had been in the school starting team for 2021 and 2022 school years.
In 2020 I joined a Football club called Diamond FC and currently playing in the 18 and Under League tournament. The Club has helped me nurture my talent in football.
I then moved to West Nairobi School, an American curriculum-based school in August 2022. Where I was selected as a starter upon joining the school. I play various positions but find that I’m at my best as a winger. However, I can also play full back and Midfield positions.
I’m a big Football fan as well and closely follow Chelsea FC in the EPL.
I feel I can be of great value to a team and any learning institution. I’m kindly seeking you to give me a chance and I can prove myself
