From an early youth to my junior year in high school I was headed down the wrong path and hanging with the wrong crowd. The start of my Senior year I knew I had to make a change and heard tryouts for soccer over the intercom. I basically started playing soccer my senior year of high school and devoted myself fully to the sport and to turning myself around to a positive trajectory. The confidence and work ethic I learned from the sport helped me greatly in improving my confidence and improving my academic outlook. I started on Junior Varsity and got moved up to Varsity the last game of the season (they probably felt sorry for me : ) I spent the summer training non stop, playing wherever I could, and eventually landed a scholarship to Junior College at Kishwaukee Junior College. I Started for Kishwaukee for 2 years and continued my relentless pursuit of improving as quickly as I could, leveled up through different leagues, and eventually earned a Full Scholarship to St. Xavier University. I was a starter at St. Xavier University and at one point we were ranked 20th in the nation. Post College I played high level club as long as my body allowed.
