Personal Statement
I am currently a member of the Class of 2022 at Pittsford-Mendon High School in Pittsford, NY, a southeast suburb of Rochester in Western New York. While Basketball is my passion, I also enjoy playing Soccer and painting/drawing art as a hobby. Since the Eighth grade I’ve been enrolled in Honors level classes while maintaining 95+ average in my coursework.
My strengths are leadership, team-first player, commitment, strong character, and high basketball IQ while excelling academically in the classroom. While I started at Point Guard these past two high school seasons, I'm very comfortable playing Shooting Guard and Small Forward positions. I enjoy playing an up tempo game, take pride in being a strong defensive player, and believe in ball movement to find the best shot for me and my teammates.
I am interested in studying Architecture/Liberal Arts in college while playing at a high level in a competitive basketball program.
