My hard work on the pitch and off has taken me from my hometown of Neustadt an der Aisch, Germany to United States where I had the opportunity to realize two dreams: becoming a professional soccer player and receiving a college degree. Like many, my pathway did not follow a straight line. I have always loved soccer, playing it from a very young age, but did not find my footing in the sport right away, being released from my academy as a teenager. That’s when I learned how leaving your comfort zone could reveal strengths you didn’t even know you had. At age 15, I stepped away from competitive soccer and enrolled in an exchange program that brought me to the United States, an experience that allowed me to see what I could do on my own and learn to love the sport of soccer again. I returned to Germany with a renewed energy to pursue competitive soccer, but also knowing that I had the capacity to go after more than one dream. Becoming a professional athlete did not mean I needed to give up my desire for a college degree, so I made the choice to come back to the United States and become a student-athlete at Providence College. During my time with the Friars, I was proud to be part of a team that saw three NCAA tournament appearances in four years. In addition to our team success, I also honored to be named the Big East’s Co-Offensive Player of the Year in 2016. After graduating with a BA in Business Administration and Management, I was fortunate to be selected by Atlanta United as the overall 8th pick in the 2017 Super Draft and move to a city that loves soccer as much as I do. Now in my second year with Atlanta United, I am proud to contribute to a great organization and enjoying every moment of this journey.
