Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Calculated and patient ball handler with pace and confidence. Great mid-range scorer with great energy. Unselfish with a great eye for assists. Can play any position if needed. Finds creative ways to score and break ankles.

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

I am obsessed with mastering a skill in basketball and the only way I would ever quit is if I was unable to do so physically. I am an extremely motivated player with a great work ethic. I ask a lot of questions but also know when to be quiet when needed. I am extremely independent and easy going. My best quality is the ability to inspire and motivate my teammates on the court.

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

I belong to the Interact club where we volunteer around the community as needed from reading to elementary school kids to setting up events for our village. I also belong to Scouts of America and working on my Eagle badge.

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

I believe I am prepared for life from the training I received in the Scouting program since I was in first grade. From animal science, archery, astronomy, citizenship, first aid, personal management, cooking, crime prevention, rifle shooting, family life, and environmental science. Many of the merit badges, camps and programs I participated in helped me be a better person.

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

Yes, my older brother passed away in 2020 and it set the whole family back a few steps. It was during a time when I really needed him the most. Through counseling and the support system from my family, friends and teammates, I was able to be a much better student and athlete because of the new appreciation I have for life and how fragile it is.

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a faith based or leadership-based college with coaches and professors that I can look up to and admire. A college with a good mission that has a health science program or sports management program.
