This 2025 season has been the fastest of my professional career so far. I feel like I just made that 13-hour drive from Tucson to Monterey in January, and now it is already time to come back home. While this was probably the quickest year of my life, it has also been one that laid an empowering foundation for my future. In Monterey, I was able to create deep ties with the community, express myself on the pitch, cultivate leadership skills, and start a business. This season brought an ever growing vision for the person that I want to be and the impact that I want to have on society; and I wouldn’t have wanted this chapter to unfold anywhere but Monterey.
