Personal Statement

I will be taking a development year to England to play for Select Generation FC and will be looking forward to playing collegiate soccer come the 2026-2027 season. I am grateful for the opportunities the game has brought to me and want to take it as far as possible while acquiring a higher level of education. I would call myself a leader on and off the field. I am an aggressive, versatile, defensive minded player who loves the physicality of the game as well as the technicality.
