Personal Statement
I am an incredibly driven athlete and student and I hope to bring my passion for soccer into the next chapter of my academic career. I am a very coachable player and thrive under coaches with high expectations on performance and attitude. I am a natural leader on and off of the field and am an enthusiastic, encouraging, and fun teammate. Throughout my competitive and high-school soccer years and the challenges involved, I have always demonstrated strong grit, flexibility, and a willingness to work hard and continue to improve. This past high school season during my Sophmore year, I was captain of the JV team, but also lettered in both Varsity soccer and Academics. I am currently a member of the National Honor Society and Link Crew (a club which focuses on mentoring younger students), am an academic tutor, and I am taking several AP and Honors classes. I switched soccer clubs this year for the opportunity to play at the CSA P1 level and to be on the College Showcase Program team through Colorado United Soccer Club, in order to compete at a higher club level and for the opportunity to work with other players who are driven to play at the collegiate level. I am in the graduating class of 2024 and am hoping to find the right fit at a college with challenging academics and a strong soccer program.
