Always had the passion for soccer from just a young age. I can’t explain it ! The camaraderie soccer brings to the table. The love and the passion everyone has for the game of Soccer. It’s electrifying! I’ve been playing since i was four years old. Keeping my goalie position. I love taking care of my team on and off the pitch. Talent is nothing without hard work and a great trustworthy team behind your back. Soccer is life.
Off the pitch my grandfather inspires me, Wayne Sagrera built his own Farm and Business from the ground up for the state of Louisiana.It’s still thriving with his four sons and grandchildren. On the pitch would be Iker Casillas. He’s fast reaction time. I can only hope to inspired to be that fast one day. He is also the same height as me which gives me confidence as a goalie.
Making my academy travel team for LA Krewe Rush & Traveling over seas and seeing the dedication and the growth I’ve achieved in this soccer community.
