Personal Statement

I believe hard work pays off. My goal for this season is to lead my HS team to  an Indiana State championship as a senior. In addition I want to commit to a 4 year college where I can continue my basketball career and earn a degree in biomedical engineering or entrepreneur/business marketing.

As a junior, my HS Basketball coach, Ray Tarnow awarded me the team MVP last season while I lead my team in scoring with 17 ppg and shot 44 % from the 3 point line. In addition, I have earned Indiana All State Honorable Mention, 1st team All County and invited to the NW Indiana ALL STARS .

On Jan. 28th of this year, 2023, I hit my 1000+ career points during our home game on Homecoming day! I was also crowned "Mr. Marquette" for my school - so this was definitely an unforgettable day for me! 

In the classroom, I have earned a 3.9 GPA and recently was announced as a National Honor Society member. On the court, I am a team player who loves to play on both ends of the floor. I have been told by several coaches that I have a high basketball IQ. I can score outside or dominate the paint.

All of these achievements and milestones have provided me with confidence to lead a college basketball team in locker room, on the court and in the classroom. #LeadingByExample!
