My journey took me from experiencing homelessness when I was younger to playing Division I college soccer and building a 13-year professional career.

Looking back, I know I didn’t get there alone. I had people who believed in me, pushed me, and helped me grow.

That’s why I created The Class of 90.

I wanted to give back what soccer has taught me and create something I wish I had growing up.

Through mentorship, player development, and sharing my experiences, my goal is to help young players build confidence, understand the game, and reach their potential.

More than anything, I want to build a community around the game we all love.

I’m Christina Burkenroad
