I fell in love with soccer as a young girl with inspiration from my parents, especially my late father. Since those young childhood days, soccer has consumed me, and I haven’t looked back.
My love for Chicago Fire started in 2004 when I moved to Chicago after graduating from college. I watched games at local bars or would grab a cab to Soldier Field to catch games live. My family soon became season ticket holders, and I was hooked.
To this day, I continue to play soccer as often as possible; I love attending matches, promoting the game, organizing pick-up games, and more. Most recently, I have dedicated my free time as a volunteer to Section 8 Chicago, the Independent Supporters’ Association of Chicago Fire Soccer Club (S8C) as the Director of Communications.
Needless to say, my love for Chicago Fire has flourished. I hope that I can continue to bring my knowledge and passion for both Chicago Fire (CF97) and Fire’s supporters’ culture to all of you here at CF97 Sirens.
Vamos, Fire!
