Personal Statement
Soccer has been my passion since second grade when I was introduced to the sport, playing for a local recreational team with my friends in my neighborhood. Some kids took the league as a place to socialize with friends but, I took it as a place to learn the foundations of the sport I grew to love. In fourth grade, I joined my first and current travel soccer team. That was my goal since my recreational league days. Throughout my first years on my travel team, I discovered how much I really enjoyed soccer. Throughout my club and high school soccer seasons, I have become extremely coachable and have loved learning new skills and techniques. I set high standards for myself and work very hard to reach my potential.
In college, I hope to find a welcoming environment, not only athletically, but also academically. I want to join a college team that will help me on and off the field. I want to find a team that works extremely hard because they know what they are capable of.
I haven't discovered my passion academically yet but, I find business, psychology, and communications interesting and I am currently taking many different classes to try to promote what I want to do in the future.
