I would like to play at the highest level, NCAA- DI, and would like to study psychology. From the beginning of my time playing soccer, I have been driven and committed to pursuing the next level and learned how to be relentless in these pursuits. I am a very hard worker; I don't give up until the last whistle and have been supplementing my team training with private skills training as well as strength, speed and agility training for several years.
Since I began playing club soccer at age 8, I have always been identified as a leader. In fact, I have been named team captain for all of my teams, including local club team, DPL, DA and ECNL teams. For my high school team, I have been a starting varsity player since my freshman year. I am currently a starting defender and captain for the 06 Sporting California Arsenal ECNL team. While I feel I excel with my speed as an outside back, I take pride in my ability to perform in multiple positions, including center back and outside midfield.
I am able to balance academics and sports at the same time and still excel. I am currently in multiple AP classes and involved in leadership at my school.
