Community Development Officer
I started playing soccer at 8 years old played for Chicago dolphins and Chicago knights coming up till high school played for John Hancock college preparatory all 4 years varsity
Was one of three freshman on the varsity team other two are my lifelong friends Jason and Alex we got promoted every year to premier division our senior year we won regionals
I was always told in school I had lots of patience and I was given teacher lawyer even being president as something to pursue but nothing called my name like soccer
When I was 13-16 I was a junior counselor at west lawn park where we would have multiple activities for the summer camp kids but when soccer coaches came in to run a session they where about 18-19 years old I was intrigued and I decided I wanted to pursue a career in coaching a crazy dream to get to Real Madrid or Manchester United one day aiming for the moon and I’ll fall among the stars I hope.
After jobs in cell phone stores restaurants and construction I found p2 and I learned and experienced so much seeing all these new places and people involved with the beautiful game
My first day on the job I heard the name Chicago City and I knew someday we’d cross paths again because they mentioned they were a semi pro club aspiring to grow and keep growing which is exactly the intention I have with my club Windy City Aztecs that I had just started.
In the midway area we both want to provide quality coaching and opportunities for the youth in the city I hope to be involved as much as I can in the development of soccer and it’s athletes in Chicago then push to get these athletes where they deserve life will then put me where I deserve hopefully it’s the bench of Real Madrid one day .
On top of all the soccer stuff that I can talk about all day
I also really enjoy music and write and record my own the club I support is Real Madrid obviously and my soccer positions are on opposite sides of the pitch I can play Right wing Left wing
Striker or Center back.
