Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Point Guard who can handle the ball against double or triple team press, I am a look to pass and get the offense started guard, love to play defense and a very good spot up shooter from the 3 point range. I do have a floater game as well.

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

I love to work day in and day out. I try to do three adays if I can. I get the offense moving and look for my shot second. I love to learn and watch a ton of film on my game as well as scouting other teams. I like to coach on the floor and love to play defense. But if you need me to knock down a shot at a high percentage I can do that as well.

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

Alex Army and help with basketball camps. I also play the drums for the last 8 years.

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

I enjoy helping others and like to listen whether it's on or off the court. I like to consider myself a coach on the floor helping others get into the right position.

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

Yes - my height has presented some difficulties from others who only see my height, but I do my best by playing strong defense even if they are a foot taller than me.
