“I see myself as maybe an ocean shade of green because I feel like that resonates with the go-with-the-flow side of my personality. At the same time, the color displays the tone of a colder temperature and different sides of my personality. It’s also just a pretty cool color.
“Northwood, in all manners, has entirely morphed me as a person. I think the soccer program is the most significant aspect of that. The cultural exposure combined with my general friend group has brought me to find more emotional maturity and figure out who I am in the process.
“A moment that changed my life, I think, was my decision to come to Northwood. The opportunity I was given at Northwood has helped shape me because these crucial years in my development have all been spent at Northwood. So, I feel like that decision is the root of everything.
“In ten years, I hopefully will have graduated from a good college and have had a promising soccer career at said school. I’ll either be traveling the world or have already traveled because this is my dream in life. On top of that, I’ll be much wiser, much taller, more handsome, and stronger. I’ll probably be equally as calm and humble as my current self. Regarding family, I’ll have a charming wife and maybe a kid on the way, too, hopefully a boy. Also, I’ll be working a stable, steady, good job that will give me a lot of money.
“What I’ll remember the most from Northwood is the people, all the moments that I shared with them, and all the different personalities that I got to know really made it special to me and it’s something that I’m going to hold on to for the rest of my life and I hope my friendships will stay. Everyone I’ve been with here, from Nate and Noah, my two childhood best friends, to people from across the world like Leo, Hamish, Jace, Machai, and Greeny. You know, just the general soccer team as a whole. Except for Koah. Not him. Just kidding, just kidding.
“I’ll never forget the experiences and relationships that Northwood has brought me, and I will be forever thankful.
