"I was born in Versailles, France, to Portuguese parents, and football has always been a huge part of my life. In 2001, my family moved to New Jersey, where I started playing for the local team."
In 2011, I moved to Portugal, and I fell in love with the country's football culture, which deepened my love for the sport. When I came back to New Jersey, I knew I wanted to stay connected to football, so coaching was a natural next step for me.
"Learning and understanding different perspectives around the game is amazing. Working alongside other coaches encourages thinking outside the box. Coaching is about helping players achieve what they couldn't on their own. It allows me to share my passion for football and positively impact the next generation."
