Personal Statement
I fell in love with soccer at age 4. Playing soccer at the highest level is one of my biggest aspirations, and many of my choices are shaped by this ambition. I am a creative player who has quick , technical foot skills. I see and analyze the field at all times in order to make the best offensive and defensive decisions possible in order to keep possession and score. My first two steps on and off the ball are quick, and I am able to accelerate quickly into space. Focus and a desire to achieve excellence drive the work I put in with my team and on my own. I am a two way player able to transition quickly up and down the field. My first touch is clean and prepares me to make decisive passes or dribble at pace. I am able to create opportunities for myself and my teammates through excellent ball distribution and crossing. My field vision and ability to keep possession cause me to be impactful throughout 90 minutes.
Creating a supportive and inspiring team environment is a goal I always strive for. I am a positive influence with my team on and off the field, and believe in the importance of building each other up.
I love learning, and academics are extremely important to me. Outside of soccer and school, I have many hobbies such as drawing, painting, weightlifting, hiking, and rock climbing. My goal is to play soccer at a high level as I pursue my education.
