Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard. A cliche, but one that I live by. I am a top performer in the classroom and on the field, thanks to my desire to learn. In 2019, my love and passion for the game was tested when I broke my foot, putting me on the sideline for 4 months, including tryouts for ECNL, which was a major setback. With 3 months of physical therapy and the support of my team, I was able to come back to training and begin the long road to full performance. 3 years later, I am breaking onto the ECNL team at my club, and playing the soccer of my life.
