Personal Statement

It is with great thought and consideration that after three years with the University of Memphis that I have decided to enter into the transfer portal. I did not take this decision lightly, but after speaking with my coaches, mentors and family I felt that in order to meet my academic and athletic goals that this was a decision that had to be made. I am extremely appreciative of the opportunities, experiences and lessons that I have taken from my time at Memphis and I will use all that I have learned to build upon that as I move on to another collegiate program. 

Presently, I am looking to compete at a high-level, in a highly-competitive conference with a program that I can be an immediate impact player.  I feel that I can bring leadership, competitiveness and a depth of experience having been a starter for all three years of my collegiate career and competed in two NCAA tournaments.  During my time at Memphis I earned several AAC honors and recognitions and for the last two of my three years, our team made program history with its NCAA tournament appearances. I look forward to being able to perform and contribute on a similar level with the next team that I play for.  

Thank you and please feel free to text me at 913-337-5844. I am looking to begin with my new program in the Spring semester.
