I’m beyond grateful and excited to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career playing soccer at University of Texas at Dallas!! 🧡💚⚽️☄️

First and foremost, I want to thank God for guiding me through every step of this journey and for blessing me with the strength, opportunities, and all the love that has gotten me to this moment. Thank you to my mom, dad, little sister and the rest of my family for every sacrifice, every ride, and for always believing in me. To my teammates and @challengesoccer coaches, thank you for constantly pushing me to grow both as a player and as a person.

A huge thank you to the coaching staff at @utdallaswsoc , Coach Rachel, and Coach Stephen, for believing in me and giving me this incredible opportunity. I’m so excited for this next chapter and everything ahead!

GO COMETS!! ☄️ #UTD #WHOOSH taken in Dallas, Texas by @leila.18.d

This season definitely wasn’t easy, but it taught me so much about consistency, patience, and pushing through when things aren’t perfect. Grateful for every moment, every lesson, and everyone this season.

Year 2, I am infinitely grateful for these past few months! I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive and awesome group of people and family to help push me and get stronger. No time to sit back; only push harder!🤍 James 1:2-4 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” taken in Magnolia, Texas by @leila.18.d
