Personal Statement

Kicking a soccer ball before I could even walk, soccer has always been a huge part of my life and I would like to keep it that way. My goal is to play at a competitive level in college, while earning a degree in Business, possibly Sports Management. Long-term, I would love the opportunity to play soccer professionally. Having trained and played at a high level, including DA and currently ECNL, I will bring to any team speed, aggressive play, and proven leadership on the field. I currently play left or right outside back and center back, but I am a versatile player having played all other positions throughout my soccer career thus far.
