A little bit about me
I am 23 years old and currently living in beautiful San Diego, California. I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. I have always played soccer and was blessed to continue my soccer career at a junior college in Washington. While I was in school, I was diagnosed with type one diabetes. It was hard to understand why this happened to me but I didn’t let it stop me from following my dreams and goals. After 2 years, I transferred to the University of San Francisco to continue my education and soccer career. I was able to achieve one of my biggest goals of playing Division 1 soccer. Never think a goal is too big to achieve. If you work hard, it will pay off in one way or another.
While playing soccer in San Francisco, I watched the Netflix documentary “Game Changers” and I wanted to try a plant-based diet to see if it would help improve my recovery and health. I thought it would also aid in managing my type one diabetes, and it did all of that and more. Since going plant-based, I have never felt more energized and happy in my whole life.
