Personal Statement
I grew up in northern Wisconsin where the level of competition was not very high. However, I was determined to progress as far as I could within the game. I worked very hard and as a result, was given an opportunity to play at Minnesota Thunder Academy (MTA). I took that opportunity, and with the support of my wonderful family, I moved down to Minneapolis to pursue my dream. It has been quite the experience since then with lots of amazing highs, and lows. But whatever happens, I always try to play with a smile. Ultimately, my love for the game fuels my work ethic and desire to always improve.
