He developed at Miami Valley School and Blast FC before attending Dartmouth, where he earned a mechanical-engineering degree and was named Ivy League Defensive Player of the Year in 2015. Cleveland spent a graduate year at Louisville, starting all 22 matches and recording 10 shutouts, before Chicago Fire selected him 26th overall in the 2017 MLS SuperDraft. His early professional development included USL spells with Tulsa Roughnecks and Lansing Ignite, where he kept seven clean sheets in 22 matches.
