Personal Statement
I'm a natural athlete. At a very young age I started playing multiple sports - baseball, basketball and of course soccer. At nine years old I made the decision to focus only on soccer. From U8-U13 I was captain of my travel team (Bridgewater Soccer Association) and was declared MVP by my coach in nearly every game.
In 2016 I made the 2002 NJ State ODP roster. Of the 40 players on this team, I was the youngest as I was born in mid-December '02. I am currently with GPS Central Jersey '02 where I play Center Mid.
In high school, I was voted captain of my freshman team early in the season. My goal as captain was to make the players around me better. Communication is a huge part of my game. Varsity coaches took notice at how I was leading the freshman team. For my Sophomore year, I started the year captain on Junior Varsity, then quickly got moved up to Varsity as the year progressed
As a person, I'm very personable and have made many friends throughout the teams I've played for. I've also maintained great relationships with my past coaches.
I have a strong network of friends and we support each other. Nevertheless I consider myself to be very inclusive and sensitive to the differences of others in and outside of my friend group.
As a student I apply myself. My current GPA is approximately a 3.65/4.0. I am in two honors classes - Latin and History. In addition, I am in accelerated math - 2 years ahead of my graduating class.
