Personal Profile: I am a 19 year old highly energetic box-to-box playmaker who loves training every day. My best
attributes are my coachability and Brazilian ginga-style creative techniques of play. I remain calm and effective during passing & scoring opportunities. I set my teammates up for success with my field vision, and quick one-touch passes, and can hold the ball when needed under pressure. I was a late bloomer, so for years I worked hard on my technical abilities to stay competitive, and now that I’m almost 6 foot tall, I have techniques & flexibility that are unusual for a taller player. I love to motivate my team, and I never give up.
