General info pertinent to a soccer bio:
My sophomore year I became a goalkeeper on accident. I was a forward and developed a knee problem, so my coach decided to try me out in net and I have loved being a keeper ever since.
Why you chose UMF:
I chose UMF because of the close-knit environment that comes with it, whether that be in sports, the classroom, or just on campus. The school was a perfect match for my goal of becoming an educator, and all of that for a reasonable price. Also, this school gives me a chance to become a part of a soccer team that holds extremely high standards and willingness to win.
