Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I would say my type of game play as a center back is sold defense, good positioning, and communication with teammates. I'm there to intercept passes, tackle, and clear the ball, while also reading the game to anticipate what the other team is going to do.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

As a center back, my mentality should be focused, confident, and assertive. I need to stay calm under pressure, make quick decisions, and be a strong leader on the field. My personality is and should be resilient and determined, always ready to step up and take control of the defense, ensuring my team stays organized and motivated.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I achieved honor roll in 7th, 8th and 9th grade. Currently, I am in Strath Haven's Outdoor Adventures Club where we do many different activities like hiking, field trips, skiing, and more! I am also in Strath Havens Best Buddies club where we spend time with high schoolers with disabilities. We play games, have snacks, and most importantly have fun! I am also in Strath Haven's Weight Lifting Club.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I took the initiative to join the Best Buddies club to get more involved in my school and community.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Facing doubt has been tough, but it’s fueled my determination. With grit and tenacity, I've worked harder, stayed focused on training, and used the skepticism as motivation to prove everyone wrong and successfully achieve my goals like making my clubs national team or trying to achieve playing in college. I would go into detail more but it only lets me write so much

What type of college are you looking for?

A college with an excellent soccer program along with outstanding academic programs (wide variety of majors). Ideally, a highly competitive soccer team with a positive team culture where I can thrive athletically.
