I have wanted to play football after high school for awhile but growing up in Canada I thought that there was no chance. I have played football for 7 years and have grown as a player and a person. I have played for a small club team from a very young age and I have felt that has molded me into what I am now. Being on a small team that played in the highest tier meant we did not win a lot, but it did teach me how to lose with grace and how to savor the wins. Being invited to the Elite 72 was one of my biggest achievements: being able to play with all the top players from my province and compete against them was an amazing experience.
