I am a 5' 9" Junior Goalkeeper from Rochester Hills, MI and I will graduate in 2013. I attend Rochester High School and currently have a 3.52 GPA. During my Junior Year I will be a Mentor to the incoming Freshman class. As a Mentor I am responsible for assimilating new students into the school, provide them with school information and be their "peer" throughout the school year.
I am very determined individual that strives to be the best I can be. I am not afraid of hard work and am committed to improving. In addition to my club or high school sports, I work out twice a week at a local sports science gym to improve my strength, speed and agility. During the summer, I attend a week-long residential Goalkeeper Camp. The past three years I attended Star Goalkeeper Academy which is operated by Dan Gaspar in Simsbury CT, and this past summer I attended Dynasty Goalkeeping conducted by Tracy Noonan in Raleigh NC.
This past season I played for the Michgan Football Club coached by Kevin Garner. In addition to playing for theMFC, I also am the Assistant Goalkeeper Coach for the under 11 club goalkeepers. This past summer (2011) I also worked as a Goalkeeper Instructor at a local camp.
With regards to a specific location or campus size, I am extremely open to where I attend school. The experience of living in a new environment and city is exciting. Currently I am very interested in two professions. The first is teaching, specifically middle school mathematics. I enjoy helping kids to learn and discover their potential and teaching provides me with that opportunity. The second profession I am interested in is Physical Therapy/Sports Science/Sports Medicine. I love playing soccer and this profession will allow me to stay involved in some capacity after my playing days have ended.
I am interested in attending a school that will allow me to play at the highest competitive level possible. I am also determined to make an impact earlier in my college career than later. I am open to all levels of schools (D1-D3). I prefer not to play at a junior college.
