I grew up playing for PDA, NYRB Academy and NYRB RDS program.  

I played Academy for NYRB for 2.5 years under DOC Jeff Zaun (U14s), Coach Kobie Johnson (U13s) and DOC Paul O'Donnell (U16s) as a Fall Practice Player.  Prior to NYRB, I played at PDA for 3.5 years with the 2000 Pre-Academy and earlier with PDA Rooney under Coach Todd Moser.  

Prior to Academy, I was lucky enough to have been invited to join NYRB Regional Development (RDS) School from 2008-2013 for skill development and tournament play under NYRB RDS Directors/Coaches -- Ricky King, Mike "Jonesy" Jones, Simon Barrow.

In the Fall 2016, I decided to play high school soccer.  I scored 12 goals and had 10 assists in 18 games from center midfield. I was awarded First Team All New Jersey Herald, First Team NJAC Conference,  First Team All-Region, First Team All-Warren County, First Team All-State and NJAC All Academic Team  

Internationally, I trained at Real Club Deportivo - R.C.D. Espanyol Academy in March 2013.  In 2013, I also played in the Costa Daurada Cup Tournament under Coach Inigo Idiakez (Real Sociedad) finishing 2nd place for the East Coast Selects Koolton Academy (2000's) scoring 6 goals and 12 assists.  I played in Portugal/Spain in the 2013 Mundialito E.I.F. Ricardo Godoy Tournament playing in Algarve and winning the 2000's Consolation Champions Cup with 4 goals in the last two game of the tournament (2 in semi's, 2 in finals) as the East Coast Selects Koolton Academy (2000's).  Some other experience domestically:  PDA Rooney 2000's (before leaving to go to NYRB) we were the 2011 USYS Regional National Cup Champions.  I also was selected and played in two other tournaments -- 2012 VW Juniors Masters National Cup at US Soccer Training Center finishing runners-up and winning the AC Milan Junior Cup in Cleveland, OH led by Coach Phil Brogan (USTA - United States Training Academy).

My main priority is to make a college squad and play at the highest level possible. As a player I would describe myself as not only a playmaker but also a goal scorer. I believe I can make crucial impacts on games when I can play my style of play. I am a very versatile player who can play center midfield, across the frontline and on occasion I have played right and left back. When playing center midfield I like to spray the ball around and run at the defense with the ball. When playing as an outside winger I like to get involved in combination play to get myself down the wing to either cross the ball or cut in toward goal. As a center forward I like to make diagonal runs across the defense to get myself in on goal. I would love the opportunity to play division one soccer at a high level.
