Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

A relentless and versatile defensive force that excels as a run stopper with the strength and discipline to control the line of scrimmage, while also possessing the quickness and instincts to seamlessly transition into an effective pass rusher. My ability to shed blocks, plug gaps, and disrupt offensive rhythm makes me a constant threat on every down.

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

I’m a hardworking athlete who brings consistent effort and focus to everything I do, always striving to improve. My sense of humor helps build strong bonds with teammates and keeps the energy positive, even during tough moments. I’m a team-first, coachable player who listens, learns, and is always ready to do whatever it takes to help the team succeed.

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

Being involved in my local rugby club has helped me develop physical toughness, quick decision-making, and a deeper understanding of team dynamics. The fast pace and physical demands of rugby have enhanced my agility, conditioning, and ability to read the game under pressure. This experience has strengthened my overall athleticism and made me a more versatile and well-rounded football player.

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

Through teamwork and community service, I’ve learned the value of communication, accountability, and putting others before myself. These experiences have helped me grow as a leader and develop a strong sense of responsibility on and off the field. They’ve shaped me into a dependable, team-first athlete who’s committed to making a positive impact.

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

Competing against older and more experienced players has pushed me to elevate my game, stay mentally tough, and learn quickly in high-pressure situations. Playing through injury has taught me resilience, discipline, and how to perform at a high level despite adversity. These challenges have made me a tougher, smarter athlete who doesn’t back down and always finds a way to contribute.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a college that offers a strong academic foundation and values education as much as athletic performance. I want to be part of a success-oriented culture that challenges me to grow both on the field and in the classroom. My goal is to continue building my skills, knowledge, and character in an environment that prepares me for success in football and in life.
