Summary
As a student-athlete on a soccer scholarship in the US, I have developed strong communication, teamwork, leadership, and independence. My passion for team sports started at a young age, and I have competed at the county level in football (soccer) and was part of the England pathway for hockey.
Since the age of 14, I have actively been involved in coaching youth football, fostering skills in young players while creating an enjoyable and supportive environment. I am currently working toward my Level 1 Coaching Certificate to further enhance my coaching abilities.
