Class of 2024 - 4.0 GPA. I have played football since I was 5 years old, and I have earned many trophies and awards along the way for my play. I helped lead my team to the conference championship 3 years straight ('16, '17, '18). I can run any offense. 

I’m now the starting varsity  QB for the Ware County High School football team in Waycross Georgia. I am very poised in the pocket. My personality is very balanced. I'm never too high or too low when it comes to emotion, and that really helps me lead my team through tough games. I would love to attend a college that can provide a great education, help me continue to  grow as a leader, & help me reach my goals.

In the classroom, I compete even harder! I take advanced/honors classes and I’m a dual enrollment student. I have been in the National Beta Club, journalism and I have been a member of science club and book club. My love for learning is mostly what makes me a great QB and prospect to lead an offense.

I love being coached tough and I will help lead your team to many wins!
