I am blessed to play QB. I have learned and continue to learn that being a great QB starts on the field but that isn’t where it ends. It takes humble, generous leadership both on and off the field. Getting this opportunity takes patience, hard work (in practice, the weight room, the film room, and the classroom) and a team first attitude. I am a working hard to earn my status as a leader on my team on the field and off. Relationships and social interactions are important to me and I excel with building connections with people. I strive to constantly improve, to be coachable, and to handle critical feedback.
I am 6'3’ 200 and still growing. Beyond football, I am an athlete. Outside of playing organized sports like soccer, basketball, and football; I love activities like skiing and BMX biking. Being well rounded as an athlete has helped build my balance, speed, and toughness.
My goals for my football career beyond high school is to compete in college. With that opportunity, I want to build the foundation for my future, if that is as an athlete professionally or a career in the medical field. With those goals, academics are important to me. I am a good student in the classroom and take multiple AP and honors classes. Currently, I have a 3.8 and I want to push it higher.
If you give me a chance to compete, you won’t be disappointed.
