Personal Statement
Growing up I played nearly every sport there is but every spring I would come back to soccer. I transitioned to only playing soccer in 4th grade but ran cross country in middle school to keep up my conditioning. Being put in all these different situations taught me how to overcome adversity and compete in any situation. My work rate and strive to be better is my biggest strength on the field, as well as in the classroom. I have a natural athletic ability, a level head, determination and a competitive spirit.
Overall, I am a team player. I am unselfish and will always look to set up my teammates, but if it’s the best play I will take the shot. I have good vision, the ability to keep the ball and play short as well as playing the important penetrating passes. I am also a good defender and can put in important tackles as well as block passing lanes and intercepting passes.
I currently play for Tormenta FC's USL-A team and the 03/04 MLS NXT team. In August 2021, I will begin my Junior year in high school where I will be taking both high school and college classes at Georgia Southern University.
My goal is to attend a Division 1 or Division 2 competitive soccer program that will allow me to explore a career in medicine and possibly professional soccer.
