While attending an academically rigorous high school, as well as playing soccer year round, I have learned to balance the challenges of giving 100% to both aspects of my life. As a student at Catholic High School, I value my education and the work it entails to be successful as well as the importance of sportsmanship, teamwork, service to others, and the path to being well rounded on and off the pitch. Because I am eager and willing to work hard, I am seeking opportunities and experiences as a college athlete. My years playing on the top 05 Baton Rouge Soccer Club team as well as playing on the CHS Louisiana State Champion Division 1 5A team, I have experienced being part of something prestigious, something great. These experiences drive me to want more, strive bigger, and to do what it takes to achieve team goals as well as personal ones. My desire to succeed doesn’t set me apart from other candidates. What sets me apart is my ability to build up others, find the talent and strength in players on my team, and combine those talents with my own. Seeing the success in others while finding success for myself, makes me a valuable player on a team
