Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I play with power, intensity, and versatility. I dominate in the paint, finishing through contact, rebounding, and locking down defenders. I use my strength to bully smaller defenders and my footwork to outmaneuver bigger ones. I take pride in my hustle, battling inside, setting screens, or extra effort on defense. I can score inside, step out for mid-range jumpers and stretch the floor.

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

I’m always working, always improving. Whether it’s early mornings in the gym or late nights watching films, I’m dedicated to getting better. I play with a chip on my shoulder, knowing that nothing is given and everything is earned. I thrive under pressure and embrace every challenge as an opportunity to prove myself.

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

I’ve developed strong leadership skills by being vocal on and off the court, pushing my teammates to give their best while leading by example. Winning takes chemistry, trust, and making the right play. I’ve embraced community service by helping youth at camps.

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

Yes, I’ve faced my share of challenges, but they’ve only made me stronger. I’ve battled injuries, learning the mental toughness to recover, stay disciplined and trust the process. Every setback has fueled my drive to work harder and never take an opportunity for granted. They have shaped me into the player and person I am today. I'm determined, hungry and ready for next.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a college that challenges me both on and off the court - a program where I can grow as a player and a person. I want a competitive program with strong coaching, culture and a team that feels like family. Academically, I’m looking for a school to set me up for success beyond basketball. I’m searching for a place that believes in me and pushes me to be my best.
