Playing baseball has been my passion since I was 6 years old. I've been told by coaches and peers that I'm a natural leader. I bring a level of intensity to the game that helps to motivate my teammates. I want to bring this intensity to the collegiate level. I believe that I am the type of player that makes an impact not only during games but also in practices and workouts. Due to my work ethic, ultra-competitive nature, and my desire to see my entire team improve day in and day out. As a student-athlete, I also understand the importance of academics and building a solid educational foundation for my future.
