Commitment - I appreciate the level of commitment and dedication the girls on Force show to the game and their teammates. I have been on teams in the past where there are days when only a few girls show up to practice. This is very frustrating so I appreciate that the Force girls all want to be out on the field every practice to work hard. It increases the intensity and challenges me to improve everyday.

College Bound - I am looking forward to playing at Cal Baptist with coach Kristen St. Clair next year and taking the next step in my soccer development and education experience.

Coaching - I am very grateful to my coaches over the years. Three special coaches come mind over the 8 years with the Force Soccer Club: David Burgee taught me that to play soccer you must first have passion for the sport and enjoy each moment on the field; Roxanne Dunn took a step of faith by bringing me onto the Force Dazzle and I wanted to prove she made the right choice; Adrianne Fass (coach ‘A’) for having the confidence in my ability and encouraging me to push through those tough mental moments on the field. Coach ‘A’ has been a great role model on and off the field. On the field, there is no one that battles better pound-for-pound. Off the field she shows class and respect for our opponent. Finally, I’d like to thank my dad, Terry, for pushing me and believing in me. My Dad was always available to help me develop my skills and encouraged me to ‘press on’ through the rough times. “Thank you Dad”.

The Force Club – I have played for the Force Soccer Club my entire youth soccer career. I have come to know how special the Force Soccer Club is in the bay area and Nor Cal. Our coaching directors and coaches have my best interest in mind and have giving me opportunities to become the best player I can be. I have had outstanding coaching through the years. I have attended high-level tournaments and have played against the best competition in the country always testing our team to improve. Some of my best memories are through tournaments we attend since we go through so much together. I would not be the player or person I am without the support of my Force teammates and relationships.
