In 2010, Jorge brought his talent to the United States, playing collegiate soccer at Bryan College in Dayton, Tennessee.

 

After competing at the USL2 and NPSL levels, Jorge transitioned to coaching, beginning as an assistant coach at Reinhardt University. During this time, he gained invaluable experience coaching at the USL2 level during the summer, working with top-tier talent and refining his approach to player development.

 

In 2019, Jorge advanced into the professional game, joining Tormenta FC in USL1. At Tormenta, he played a pivotal role in developing players who went on to excel both abroad and in the USL Championship. His tenure with the club reached its pinnacle in 2022 when Tormenta FC secured the USL1 Championship, with Jorge contributing as part of the championship-winning coaching staff.

 

Currently, Jorge serves as a performance coach with Columbus Crew 2, continuing to elevate his expertise within the MLS and MLS Next leagues.
