Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I have a diversified skill set and can play multiple guard positions. I like to help my team in all ways needed against different players. Unselfish playing is very important to me.

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

Unselfish positive and focused leader. My teammates tend to think of me as serious, but I also nurture relationships and have fun before and after practices.

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

Comic + Art club. I was a founding member of our comic club where we developed a new character and wrote and illustrated comics around that.

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

I love my work with youth as a basketball development counselor. I develop the drills to work on their offense, defense, shooting, and I coach them through their games. I like to bring enthusiasm, humor, and develop the drills.

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

The pandemic was a significant challenge as I am a social person. Basketball was a sport I could dig into more deeply and I felt energized that I was working toward goals even as our world changed all around me.
