Background
I have been playing Club Soccer since I was 5 years old. I have advanced to the highest level club team each year thru hard work. Practice, practice, practice! This applies not only to Soccer but to my Academics where I have always excelled. Listen, teach, and lead- having become the Captain of my HS team this year has enabled me to further these ideals.
I have always been driven to play soccer in College. It’s been a dream of mine that I want to turn into reality. Academically, I enjoy Computer Science, Math, Physics, and Astronomy. I have traveled with my parents in the U.S. We have visited schools both East and West. The technology and innovation that takes place at many colleges around the country is very exciting. Many of them would be great places to study and play soccer. I know that there is opportunity in all the regions of the U.S. to attend a college that provides academics in these fields, as well as great soccer programs. Companies like Space X or Tesla Motors would be INCREDIBLE to work with! These are dreams and goals that I aspire to in addition to playing Professional Soccer! I know I have the motivation and mind set to achieve my goals!
