A little bit about me

Hi ! My name is Emi Tormo, a student-athlete from UMBC, where I´m receiving my bachelor's in financial economics while proudly being a member of the Division 1 soccer team. Beyond the books and the field, you'll often find me enjoying the great outdoors, indulging my love for various sports and nature.
One of my biggest passions outside of academics and athletics is working with kids. I find immense joy in teaching them sports and engaging them in creative activities, all aimed at enhancing their interpersonal skills. Whether it's dribbling a soccer ball or walking outdoors, I believe in the power of nurturing young minds and spirits.
Being a student-athlete has taught me invaluable lessons in time management. Balancing rigorous training schedules, demanding coursework, and personal commitments requires a blend of being work-oriented and organized.
I bring a blend of passion, dedication, and a love for both learning and sports. Can't wait to share more about my journey with you!"
