Birthplace
I am excited to be joining Eastside FC from California, where I have coached competitive soccer for nine years across all age groups, levels, and genders. I recently completed my USSF B license and have always looked for opportunities to grow as a coach on and off the field. Previously I was a 30 under 30 recipient, and a She Believes mentee. Through meeting my mentor, I had the opportunity last summer to work with the U17 Antigua and Barbuda women's soccer national team, which was a fantastic opportunity.
I believe in putting the person first then the athlete, it is important to understand what drives each child and I hope soccer can become an important part of their life as they continue to develop and love the sport.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family as well as watching other sports. I am excited to explore Washington and learn more about this amazing state.
