Biography
Albert Prosa carved out a notable career in Estonian football primarily as a forward for Flora Tallinn, the country's most successful club. Born in 1990, his professional journey was defined by domestic reliability rather than international fanfare. He became a fixture in the Meistriliiga, Estonia's premier division, where his sharp instincts in front of goal helped secure multiple league championships for his team. While his appearances for the Estonian national team were limited, his legacy is that of a dependable and effective scorer in his home country's competitive landscape, representing the solid, homegrown talent that forms the backbone of national leagues.
Millennials
1981–1996
The first digital natives. Grew up with the internet, came of age during 9/11 and the 2008 crash. Highly educated, deeply indebted, slower to marry and buy houses. Redefined work, identity, and what it means to be an adult.
Albert was born in 1990, placing them squarely in the Millennials. The events that shaped this generation — the internet revolution, 9/11, and the 2008 financial crisis — shaped the world they entered and the choices available to them.
