Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

A slashing wing that can get to the rim aswell as knock shots down from outside. Create shots of the dribble and create for others. Can play as a combo guard

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

Focused in games and talking both ends. Not talking with words to opponents just letting my game speak. I got introduced to basketball in 6th so I’m a little bit late still plugging things in as a player and always wanting to toughen my mentality more

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Midwest kings. I’ve received letters for my academics and performance as well as music

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I’ve developed a leadership presence with my vocal presence on the court and I’ve developed quick skills at building team chemistry with players that I’m new to.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I’ve faced multiple personal challenges including fostercare and a pretty hard childhood so basketball being introduced to me was a pretty big change. Had injuries with my knee but recovered now. Something else that was a slight inconvenience was just missing opportunities for basketball like to get better along the way which was a little while back.

What type of college are you looking for?

At the moment a public or private university either one. I would like to go college and pursue a degree while playing basketball. Minnesota would be a great opportunity since I could play for my home state.
