2017-2020 Highlig...Personal Statement
After playing semi-professionally, training with professional players and coaches in Portugal, I have improved greatly and have decided to come back to the U.S. to go to college and get an education while playing competitively. I have come back to play with the Pittsburgh Riverhounds Developmental Academy in hopes to gain exposure that I missed out on while I was out of the country. Having played internationally in Sweden, Denmark and mainly in Portugal I have had good insight into what it takes to be a very competitive and committed player on and off the field. I want to become the best player and person I can be, through soccer I have made decisions that bring me closer to those goals every day.
