****UPDATE****
Due to COVID restrictions and many event cancellations during my Post Grad basketball year in FL (2020-2021), for the 2021-2022 school year, I am currently attending Miles Community College in Miles City, MT where I hold a starting position on the basketball team with my GPA at 3.67.
For the 2020-2021 school year, I have decided to attend Central Pointe Post Grad in Orlando Florida, reclassifying to the class of 2021. This decision was made in order to continue working on building my size and strength, as well as consistently working to improve my skills.
From the moment I picked up a basketball at the age of three years old, the rest is my history in the making. My passion, love and respect for the game continues to intensify and grow stronger as the days and years pass. My goal is to attend a college that challenges me to be my best, both academically and athletically, ultimately preparing me in reaching my goal of playing professional basketball.
As any one of my previous coaches will confirm, I'm a natural leader who is a confident, coachable team player who continually strives for improvement. Along with my passion and love for basketball, I enjoy traveling, spending time with my family and volunteering my time to help senior citizens.
