• High Honor Roll; Member of the National Society of High School Scholars; Honors Math & English classes; Student Ambassador

I am a high honor roll student, taking honors classes at an academically rigorous Catholic high school. In college, I want to pursue a business degree, then continue on to law school. I want to work in the sports industry.

I love sports and have played many, but soccer is my #1. I have been playing since I was 2. My favorite Halloween costume was my Messi Argentina uniform. I was a full time field player until 2020 who would sub occasionally for goalie. When I was 9-11, I played baseball with our local little league boy's team and was catcher. So I didn't mind being the goalie sub! In 2020, I played goalie for my premiere team in a tournament in Florida - that was when I knew it was the position for me! On one save, I was parallel to the ground and loved it. So we found a new team where I could play goalie and a team I could call home for my high school years. Jose Smith was the Chicago Fire South coach and I was excited to be playing with him. Within days of the tournament and decision to move teams, COVID shut it all down and the team fell apart. Jose is a great supporter and told us about his buddy at Sockers FC Chicago, because he knew they were looking for an 06 goalie. So, I just played my FIRST season 2021-22, as a full time goalie for my new team, Sockers FC Chicago 06/U17 Academy, and we play in the Mid West Conference of the Girls Academy League. I love my teammates and coaches. It has been really cool and my 2nd season is off to a great start.

I have been told that I have really good athleticism. I have come really far for 1 full year and need to go farther. I attend weekly team practice, team goalie training, private goalie training and endurance, agility & strength training - 5/6 days a week. 

Last summer, I attended IMG Academy for 3 weeks of goalie training. Coach Kelsey gave me this feedback: "Your overall shot stopping ability is amazing." and wrote that these are my differentiating traits: Positive Attitude, Very Vocal, Coachable, Great Person.

So I am excited to be playing at this level and want to play in college. Working hard on that dream.
