Accomplishments
Awarded athletic soccer scholarship to attend and play at U.C Riverside where I competed in the Big West Conference.
As a youth club soccer player I've won multiple championships such as National Cup and Surf Cup.
I've had the opportunity to travel and bond with my teammates through soccer and make wonderful memories.
As a high school player my team went to the state finals as a junior. I was named captain all 4 years. I was also named:
Ocean League Defensive MVP as a sophomore
Ocean League MVP as a Junior
ALL CIF Div 3 as a junior
Team MVP as a senior
Additional Information
As I transition out of being a full time student athlete, I would love to continue my love for soccer (and all sports) as a career. I've been working with children as a camp counselor every summer since I was sixteen years old so I am comfortable with children from diverse backgrounds. I feel my psychology degree can only facilitate my communication and engagement with children and parents alike.
