Why choose BYU?:
BYU has always been my dream school, ever since I was in kindergarten.
Soccer Experience:
From ages 5-7 I played for a city youth league. Ages 8-17 I played for various clubs in so-cal such as SASC (Santa Anita Soccer Club) and Glendora FC and lastly Arsenal FC. I also played three years varsity soccer at my high school. (Freshman year I was living in Utah and the middle school was from 7th to 9th grade. I just played club for a club called the Earthquakes.)
Hobbies:
I love music. So naturally I like to play the guitar and piano. I am also a thrill-seeker. I love to long-board and snow-board. If it has a board involved I will probably love to do it.
Who has influenced you:
My dad. He was a super athlete when he was growing up, and he encourages all of his children to play at least one sport. All of my siblings are an example in one way or another. Take my oldest sister Brittany for example, she was the most feared girl on her soccer team. She played rugby in college! She has taught me to never back down. My older brother KC of course has encouraged me to pursue soccer and to try and join the BYU Mens soccer team. He is a great example to me.
