Achievememts:
In 2022, I decided to come to the US to play for Tusculum University. I've played in twenty-two games so far, starting most of them. In the 2022 I received an all conference award and for the 2023/2024 season, I was named to the pre-season All-SAC team.
I started playing soccer when I was 5 years old with my hometown team, VV Oldeholtpade. When I was 13, I wanted to play at a higher level, so I joined VV Heerenveen. After two years there, I caught the eye of scouts from the KNVB Northern regional team. With my regional team, I played against professional clubs like SC Heerenveen, SC Cambuur, and FC Emmen. At 16, I was scouted to play for the professional club SC Cambuur. I spent a year and a half in their academy before returning to play for VV Heerenveen's senior team.
Personal Statement:
During my time at Tusculum University, I mainly played as a center defensive midfielder, but I can also switch to center midfielder or center back when needed. On the field, I bring a strong work ethic, good control of the ball, and a keen eye for the game, which all help increase our chances of winning. As a player, I aim to win a conference championship and compete in the national tournament. In my personal life, I'm focused on finishing my BA degree and dreaming of starting my own business one day. When choosing a university, I'm looking for one in a city with a nice campus, a soccer program that likes to keep possession of the ball, and plays an attacking style of play. Also, I would like to play a bigger offensive role than I did before, as I have the ability and skills to do that as well.
