I have a great passion for soccer and wish to play at the collegiate level. I feel I have the athleticism, technical skills, touch, vision, soccer IQ, confidence, and physicality to be an impact player at the next level. I am currently a Freshman at St. Francis HS, Sacramento, CA (2024 graduate). I am a well-rounded individual who likes to be challenged, both academically and athletically. I hope to attend a top-notch academic University that has a highly competitive soccer program. My longer-term goal is to attend Medical School and become a physician.

 

PERSONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS

  • Black belt in Karate (Shorin Ryu Shorinkan style) and Kobudo (weapons)
  • Multilingual: fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, and proficient in Italian and French.
  • Music: Piano (9 yrs.) and Harp (5 yrs.)

 

All of the video clips are from my last soccer season (2019-20), with Placer United 05 GDA. It was my first year playing USS GDA on a new team. Prior to last season, I played almost exclusively as an attacking Midfielder/Forward, while this past season I primarily played Holding Mid and Center Back (hence the video clips). Although I consider myself an attacking player, the current video shows my versatility as a defender and playmaker. This season I anticipate playing more in an attacking position, playing up on my new team – Davis Legacy 04 ECNL (video pending).
