Although I played multiple sports throughoput the years; it is on the football field that I have learned the most valuable lessons. Lessons that I have contributed to my character and work ethic on and off the field.

Specifically it taught me:

1) To take direction and be coachable.

2) The value of hard work. The season requires preparation throughout the year, not just in August.

3) Humility, whether winning or losing.

4) Dependability. I owe it to my teammates and myself to be at all trainings, menatlly and physically prepared for practice and games.

5) The value of a teamwork. Every player has to work together as one unit, a brotherhood, to execute the plays correctly.

6) There is always, always room for improvement.

These are the lessons I have carried as I strive to be the best player, teammate, scholar, and employee.

In addition to athletics and personal workouts, I can be found participating with my church, volunteering in the community, working part-time, or in the garage restoring a classic car.

As I enter the post-secondary phase of my athletic and education career, I am looking for a school which will continue to prepare me athletically and academically for life.

I'm very coachable; learning from my mistakes and apply new skills/techniques quickly. In addition, I have a "head for the game"; and utilize this to help fellow teammates so that we gel as a unit.

During high school, I developed as a player. Although the junior year was marred by the pandemic, it gave time for me to develop as an individual so that I would be better prepared for this season. My oall for this season is to continue to physically improve myself, and play with determination in order to assist my team to the playoffs and possibly state championship.

I am extremely interested in playing at the collegiate level in order to increase my skills and competition level.
