Playing Experience
Soccer has always been at the core of my life, shaping who I am as both a player and a coach. My journey began with PACNW and later Crossfire Academy, where I honed my skills and developed my passion for the game. I had the incredible opportunity to play in England for Birmingham City, gaining international experience and exposure to a professional level of competition. Back home, I continued my career in the National Independent Soccer Association (NISA) with Space United, competing at a high level in a professional league.
Off the Field
I’m dedicated to giving back to the community. I co-founded the Kent Indo-American Sports Club, a nonprofit soccer organization that provides kids of all backgrounds the opportunity to play soccer while fostering a connection with the Sikh community. As a mentor and role model for Sikh coaches, I aim to inspire others to lead and grow through the sport.
Coaching Career
In my coaching career, I’ve had the privilege of working with Seattle Sounders Summer Camps, where I guided young players in developing their skills and love for the game. I’ve also served as the assistant varsity coach for Kentwood High School, helping student-athletes compete at the highest level in high school soccer. I now run my own Seattle soccer academy, which travels to Indian soccer tournaments across the country, competing alongside some of the top Division 1, USL, and MLS Next players. With over eight years of experience in private training, I am passionate about working one-on-one with players to help them reach their full potential. My ultimate goal is to engage with the community, pave the way for the next generation of soccer talent, and build a strong foundation for every player who joins our academy. By training with us, you will leave with the tools, skills, and mindset needed to succeed both on and off the field. Join us, and let’s take your game to the next level together.
