Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I would describe my style of play as determined and focused. Kicking isn't just a role for me, it's a passion. I take pride in outworking everyone, constantly pushing myself to be sharper, stronger, and more consistent. I don’t just want to be seen as a kicker who plays football, I want to be a football player who kicks. I embrace the pressure and approach every rep like it's a game-winner.

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

My mentality is simple: I want it more. This is my passion, and I treat every day like an opportunity to prove that. I was one of the first to earn the offseason Blue Collar Award during strength and conditioning because I show up early, stay late, and give everything I have. I don’t take shortcuts, and I don’t make excuses. That’s how I approach football and life.

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

Two-time Presidential Gold Service Award Winner Volunteen at Holy Angels for three years, including winning award for being a top volunteer. Volunteered at multiple other nonprofits including OneBlood, LLS, Claire's Army and more. Attended Broyhill Leadership Conference twice Created a graphic design business on my own.

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

The Broyhill Leadership Conference taught me a lot about myself and my abilities to lead through teamwork. I really enjoy community service. I had already volunteered 100+ hours one year before knowing about the Presidential Service Award. With my football team, I try to lead by example. I never missed a voluntary workout during the school year and push myself and others to be the best we can be.

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

I dealt with a hip impingement/torn labrum from 7th-9th grade. I had to work through the pain often having to sit out practices. I had to be mentally strong and focused during this frustrating period. I had to work twice as hard following surgery to recover and get even stronger. It has made me even more determined to reach my potential and goals.

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a college that will be a good fit for me academically, athletically and personally. I consider my team to be family. I'm looking to be challenged to reach even higher goals.
