If you won the lotto, what is the first thing you would do with the money? 

• I would pay off my student loan debt, buy my parents a house, and start a college fund for my two younger sisters.

What has been your biggest failure? 

• To me a failure is something that has a negative impact on your life but also provides a great opportunity to learn. An example of this in my life was my knee injury. I was told I wasn’t going to be able to play the game I love again. After a lot of hard work I was back and stronger then before. Through this experience I learned that sometimes you have to “go through the fire” and fight through uncertainty to become an even better version of yourself on the other side.

What do your teammates say is your best quality?

• It would we hard for me to speak for my teammates but I can say I try to set a good example when it comes to competitiveness and always being available to my teammates on or off the field.

Who is the hardest working teammate on your team?

• I would say Ryan Flood, he is a senior TE for our team. He is the definition of a team first guy who is never afraid to do the tough work and “put his nose to the grindstone”.

What is your degree in, if you do not make it as a football player, what is your dream job? 

• I’m pursuing a degree in Business Administration with minors in Kinesiology and Data Science. I would love to be able to stay connected with the game in some way after my playing career is over, so maybe a career in the business aspect of the game or coaching is where I could see myself landing.

What is your coolest life moment? 

• At Russell Wilson’s passing academy I threw the ball so hard it went threw his hands and hit him in the face, which lead to me getting to have a conversation with the starting QB of my favorite team.

Do you have any hobbies?
