He made his professional debut on March 17, 2018 and scored his first professional goals with a brace against LA Galaxy II on April 7, 2018.

Collegiately, Segbers attended the University of Wisconsin and earned United Soccer Coaches DI National Scholar Player of the Year and MAC Player of the Year honors, in addition to a pair of First Team All-American selections from the United Soccer Coaches and College Soccer News.
