COMMUNITY
It was instilled in me from a young age that when able to help others, you should. So, because I am able, I try to give back every chance I get. I honestly enjoy being out in the community, meeting new people, and getting to know the area. We have been able to accomplish some incredible things in this field during my time at UM, and I am excited to continue building upon what we have started. It is always a goal of mine to leave a place better than I found it.

CAREER ASPIRATIONS
After playing, I hope to coach football at the collegiate or professional level. I am currently proficient in XOS Thundercloud, Visio, and PowerPoint. It has been a dream of mine as long as I have been playing. Nothing would make me happier than being able to stay around the game I love while helping teach others and getting to scratch my competitive itch every Saturday or Sunday.
