Accomplishments & Impact
What would you say is your biggest accomplishment in your athletic career so far, and what did it take for you to achieve it?

Pitching in the Little League World Series regionals on ESPN. Took a lot of time working everyday and taking care of my body.

Role & Identity as a Player
How would you describe your playing style, and what separates you from other athletes in your sport and your position?

I play fast and physical and what separates me from all other players is I get off faster than other DL.

Development Curve
What is one area of your game you’ve significantly improved over the past year, and how did you develop it?

I have gotten a lot faster, more explosive and able to move better. I developed this by being consistent in the weight room.

Adversity & Resilience
Tell us about a challenge or setback you’ve faced in your career. How did you respond, and what did you learn from it?

I have had many coaches tell me I wasn’t good enough to play over someone I felt I was better than. I would just work harder and control what I can control.

I lift 3 times a week and also work on speed and ploys 2 times a week.

I want to run a sub 5 and also do well with 1 on 1’s

I want to be able to receive multiple offers and stay consistent on lifting weights and sprint mechanics.

Football IQ & Leadership
How do you contribute to your team beyond your physical performance—whether that’s leadership,

communication, or understanding the game?

I understand the game well I know where I am supposed to be and know where some of my teammates are supposed to be.

Recruiting & Exposure
What are you hoping coaches and scouts take away from your performance at the combine?

I want them to take away that I’m one of the hardest workers who is always going to give max effort.

What drives you to keep pushing and competing at a high level, especially when no one is watching?

I want to prove to anyone who has doubted me, by proving them wrong.
