I love playing soccer, watching soccer, training for soccer, and putting in the extra work both on and off of the field!
I continue to push myself academically, entering 9th grade with a 4.15 GPA.
I was told at a young age, “In order to become a pro GK, it will be hard work, on and off of the field.” I was 12 years old when I was not placed on the local ECNL team. I was heartbroken and thought my dreams were over. I could have let this destroy me. I did the opposite. I had a choice, to let them win, or prove them wrong. It motivated me. I started working out more. I started doing strength and conditioning. I scheduled 3-4 GK sessions a week. I trained with every GK coach in the area. I put in the work on the field. I trained like an animal. I committed to every 1 v 1, every cross, and every save. I was going to be the best GK on the pitch every time there was another GK at training.
In December 2023, I was accepted mid season to Northern Virginia Alliance’s ECNL team as the starting GK.
I have done individual and group training sessions with the following coaches: Bill Hamid (Ex DC United GK), Erika Yohn (Fairfax Union GK Director), Zach Roszel, Nabil Milani (Northern Virginia Alliance Boys GK Coach), Fionn Deehan (DC Power GK Director), Celia Mosier (Richmond Strikers GK Director), Adrian Clewlow (ACGK), John Young (ODP GK Coach), Christian Mendez (ODP GK Coach), Mac Philips (ODP GK Coach), Justin Grove (Grove United Academy), Timothy Lucas (Northern Virginia Alliance GK Coach), and Dave Bucciero (Northern Virginia Alliance GK Director/College Placement Tech Director)
I have played internationally in France (Richmond Strikers), Spain (ODP) and Portugal (ODP), and will be traveling to the UK with Northern Virginia Alliance/ECNL in March 2025.
I believe life will always have mountains. There will always be people who do not believe in me. I thrive when I am faced with adversity. The feeling I get when I arrive at the top and look down at what I have accomplished, is a feeling I enjoy chasing every day.
I will always give 100% academically and athletically. I will be the leader in the chaos. I will be the listener when someone needs an ear. I will be a role model to anyone looking up to me. I will be the best student athlete I am able to be.
