About Me

I was born in North Carolina, spent a few years in Florida where I first started playing football, and returned to NC at 14. Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to developing as both a student and an athlete, putting in the work to improve my skills, stay disciplined, and become a reliable teammate. My biggest motivation is my mom, who passed away when I was 16 — she was my greatest supporter, and I play this game to honor her memory by pushing myself to be the best I can be in every aspect of life.
My goals are to earn the opportunity to play football at the college level, contribute to a program that values toughness and teamwork, and continue my growth in the classroom to prepare for success beyond football. I’m looking for a college that feels like family — a place where I can be challenged, supported, and pushed to reach my full potential.
Football has shaped me into who I am today: hardworking, resilient, and driven. I believe in being coachable, putting the team first, and never backing down from a challenge. Playing college football isn’t just my dream — it’s my purpose, and I’m ready to give everything I have to the right program.
