I have been playing soccer since I was two years old, and the game has always been a major part of my life. Growing up, I developed my skills and passion for the sport, eventually playing at Bonners Ferry High School, where I learned the importance of discipline and teamwork. Beyond school, I continued competing at higher levels with Pflugerville FC and One World FC, which pushed me to grow as both a player and a person. Along the way, I faced multiple challenges, from tough injuries that tested my resilience to balancing academics and athletics while trying to stay focused on my goals. Moving between different teams also brought challenges, such as adjusting to new coaching styles, teammates, and systems of play. Despite these obstacles, I used every experience as motivation to improve, adapt, and keep striving forward. Soccer has not only been a sport for me but also a journey of overcoming adversity and building strength through perseverance.
