2020 Highlights
2021 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Receiving a solid college education is key, but I'm also looking forward to the opportunity to play soccer. Soccer is my passion. My current teammates are family. I am looking for the opportunity to receive a great college education while building a close connection with a new soccer family.
I'd be an excellent candidate because of my dedication and open mindset to do what is best. I have learned to believe and not question coaches when it comes to field positions and how my size as a player can be used to benefit the team. Initially, I played as a forward, but over the last two years, I shifted to defense and have embraced the center back and outside back positions. Taking on new field positions has challenged me, but also has continued to push me to do my best no matter what situation or position I am put in - on the field or in the classroom.
I am the player you want for your team!
