Soccer has always been more than a sport to me - it's where I've learned discipline, leadership, and resilience. My journey has taken me from competing with Tampa Bay United, Berkeley Preparatory School's varsity team to training and playing internationally at Rome City Prep Academy in Italy. Each step has tested me, shaped me, and strengthened my desire to play at the collegiate level.
At Berkeley Prep, I developed under high academic and athletic expectations, learning how to manage pressure and perform consistently. As a varsity player during freshman and sophomore years, I grew into a dependable teammate and competitor, trusted to lead and adapt in crucial moments. Playing for Tampa Bay United from age of 6 to 16 years from DA program, MLS Next, ECNL, and NAL has provided exposure to top-level US club soccer, sharpening my technical and tactical skills against some of the best youth players in the region. At Rome City Prep, I experienced the intensity of European football -training daily, adjusting to new systems, and stepping outside my comfort zone to grow both as a player and a person.
Balancing soccer with a 3.64 GPA has taught me time management focus, and accountability. I've learned how to be self-motivated, organized, and mentally tough. All qualities that will carry over to college life both on the field and in the classroom.
What makes me a strong candidate is not just my playing background, but my mindset. I'm coachable, team-oriented, and driven to improve every day. I bring a blend of international experience, academic dedication, and competitive spirit to everything I do. I'm excited to contribute to a program that values excellence, unity, and growth - and to represent it with pride and purpose.
