Personal Statement
Since I was 5 baseball has always been a passion of mine. I love every aspect of the game and I have worked hard over the years to be able to have the opportunity to play college baseball at the highest level possible.
I am a team player, not only in sports, but also in my family, church and community. I work hard on the field and in the classroom. My education is important to me. In high school, I was dual enrolled in AP, Honors and college classes and a member of the National Honor Society. I graduated high school in the top five percent of my class with a 4.0 GPA.
In high school I was a two sport athlete and the starting first baseman on Varsity since my sophomore year. In my senior year, I led my team with a .444 batting average to a 3A Maryland State Championship. I have always played on teams where I am the youngest member to insure that I would always push myself to be the best player possible. In past summers, I have played with 18 to 22 year old top college recruits for the Edward W. Brooks Collegiate Baseball League and the Southern Maryland Sting (Rob Kidwell-Select travel coach for the Southern Maryland Sting).
I am a first generation college student currently enrolled at the College of Southern Maryland where I am the starting first baseman and lead all offensive categories. I am looking to continue my education at a college where I can continue to pursue my degree in business and be a contributing factor to my team.
