The Seattle native had an explosive start to his Sounders career in 2023 with a goal on each of his first 3 appearances, which included a US open Cup debut and an MLS debut with a first team contract in between.
Sounders fans were eager to see more of their homegrown talent, but his appearances fizzled out. In 2024 the team would surely benefit from another productive streak, but he is unlikely to get a starting role.
