WORDS FROM A WINNER

What are your feelings about receiving the United Soccer Coaches, “2020 Advocacy of Excellence” award?

Overwhelmed with gratitude for all the people that have contributed to my journey as a soccer coach and very thankful to be at the right place at the right time. I now understand why my mother arranged for me, as an 11-year-old, to live with my grandparents and go to school in the USA. A handful of people in my youth instilled in me a work ethic that has helped me in my journey.
