Personal Statement
My desire for becoming a collegiate athlete is to compete in the sport I have loved my entire life, while getting the best education possible. I want to make an impact on the team that I am on. My joy is seeing a team come together for the greater good and achieve something big. I understand that something big does not always come in the form of the highest award or largest trophy, but its usually in quieter moments. I want to play soccer for as long as I possibly can and I will work hard to keep getting better and improve my skills to improve the quality of play for my team. I am dedicated to not only soccer, but also my education and community. We are a local pizza family and I really enjoy making pizza for preschool kids and teaching them the art of pizza. I know the value of a role model, and I have been fortunate to have so many around me throughout my life which makes me want to be a role model for others. I am realizing that I can be that not only on the soccer field, but in everyday life as well through community engagement and time. I think I would be a good candidate for any soccer team that has space on their roster for me due to my passion, my drive, my level headedness, and my fierce love of my teammates. I am a protector both on and off the field. I make quick but careful decisions and I can read the field of play very well. I understand my role on the pitch and I value not only what I can bring to the game, but my teammates.
