I photograph teenage soccer games, capturing the intensity and passion of young athletes as they compete on the field. It's exciting to freeze moments of teamwork, skill, and emotion as the players give their all during each match. My goal is to create images that reflect the energy and spirit of the game.

I referee soccer games for 2nd through 6th graders, ensuring fair play and helping the kids learn the rules of the game. It’s rewarding to watch their skills develop as they compete in recreational matches, bringing enthusiasm and teamwork to the field. Keeping the games fun and balanced is my top priority.

I coach a group of energetic 2nd and 3rd graders in soccer, helping them learn the basics of the game while having fun. We practice teamwork, passing, and scoring, preparing to face other recreational teams in exciting weekend matches. Watching them grow in confidence and skill is the best part of the experience.
