Career

Youth and college

While born in Brooklyn, Cameron grew up in North Brunswick, New Jersey where he attended North Brunswick Township High School.[1] He was a two time first team All State soccer player at North Brunswick. In 2003, Cameron entered the University of Connecticut, playing on the men's soccer team in 2003 and 2004. He played fifteen games as a freshman, but only seven as a sophomore. Frustrated by his low playing time, he transferred to the Rutgers University in 2005.[2] He finished his career in 2006 at Rutgers.

Professional

On February 8, 2007, Cameron signed with Miami FC of the USL First Division.[3] He was a regular on the Blues’ back line for nearly two seasons before being traded to the Atlanta Silverbacks in exchange for Ansu Toure on August 16, 2008.[4]

In 2009, he joined the Pittsburgh Riverhounds, and played 10 games for team, before re-joining his first professional club, Miami FC, in 2010.

International

Cameron, who holds both U.S. and Guyana citizenship - the latter through his father - has played for the Guyana national football team.[5]
