Soccer playing experience: I played at high youth standard for Corinthian Casuals up to U18, before a serious ankle injury prevented me from playing on. I am now fully recovered. I also played for my high school team and college.

Other experience: Fulham FC soccer in the community, July 2006-January 2007; AFC Bournemouth soccer in the community, October 2006-June 2007; Parkstone Sports and Arts Center, October 2006-June 2007; MLS Camps, July 2007-November 2007.

Other interests: I enjoy all sports, particularly soccer and tennis. I like to keep fit and attend the gym regularly. I also enjoy traveling and experiencing different cultures.

More about me:

  • I like to work with children because they absorb information quickly and it is rewarding as a coach to see the clear progression of their skills. Also, the enthusiasm that children have for sports no matter their playing abilities makes for an enjoyable working environment.

  • I have a life long passion for soccer and therefore working in this field gives me great pleasure. Coaching is something that I wish to pursue in later life – working here would give me invaluable experience.
