I’ve played baseball which seems like my whole life, and never lost the love for the game. From travel ball, little league, and now high school ball. I was blessed to experience what going far in little league can do by playing and competing in the LLWS regional tournament ending in third place. Able to win in multiple USSSA baseball tournaments and experiencing my first high school state championship in 2022. It doesn’t get old to me, my love and desire to be better grows with every game. My goal is to be better than I was yesterday, so that I can compete in the next level. It’s always been a dream of mine to compete in collegiate or at a higher level.
I’ve watched myself grow into the young man I am throughout the years, and I know I am not done growing and learning. I’ve learned you must have mental toughness for this game, failure can happen at any moment. Showing expression is something that I learned to control while pitching. I absolutely love and want to be the best I can be, I strive to stay out of trouble and be a role model for the younger generation coming up. I have three younger brothers I watch every day doing what I do, so my goal is to never let them or my family down.
Speaking from my heart, I want nothing more than to be somewhere where I can push myself to be a better athlete and successful, it’s a goal to be around others who want the same. I know my learning and development isn’t done and I cannot wait to see where I go.
