I have many interests but out of all of them soccer brings me the most joy and satisfaction. When I'm playing in a game, nothing else matters. Game time is my break from the rest of my stress. I hope to continue with soccer as long as I can and be able to travel places I haven't been to play. (Although it might be a lofty goal I hope to play not only on an NWSA team but the USWNT as well.) I love the bond that can be made with teammates and I think supporting each other off the field is just as important as on the field. Not only does soccer bring me satisfaction but I also love learning new things and I am highly competitive. I love a little competitive push with teammates, as well as classmates. I believe that we can all help each other improve by being the best we can be. I care about who I surround myself with because of this and I try to be the best I can despite struggles I may be dealing with. Soccer is so important to me for the reason that it truly is a relief from everything else in my mind. I can't imagine not playing after high school and I would do anything to secure myself a position in which I get to continue to play soccer and achieve my goals. Overall, I am a bright student athlete and hope to learn as much as I can from the world around me.
