Joseph de Verteuil was born in Brazil and grew up in Michigan. Mr. de Verteuil played soccer at many levels throughout his career. “Growing up soccer was not affordable for my family. That inspired me to remove the financial barrier for others.”
Joseph started Detroit Soccer District in January 2017 and serves as its Founder.
Being awarded a “space” grant from the Motor City Match program encouraged Mr. de Verteuil to pursue the dream of opening DSD. Fast forward to today he spends most of his day coaching and/or playing at DSD.
Mr. de Verteuil holds a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance from Western Michigan University and a Master’s Degree in Business Administration from the Mike Illitch School of Business at Wayne State University. He has held positions within finance and operations for 6 years in the private sector. Mr. de Verteuil resides in Corktown with his amazing wife and two dogs
