My story

From fighting for minutes to becoming one of the best 3-PT shooters in the country during my senior year of college all while graduating summa cum laude with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and being named Scholar-Athlete of the Year.

In my final two years of NCAA Division 1 basketball, I had a mentor who helped me take my game to the next level, build resilient confidence, fall in love with basketball again, and become the best version of myself on and off the court. This lead me to achieve my dream of playing professional basketball overseas.

I want to give younger athletes the mentorship I wish I had earlier in my career, and share my love, passion, and knowledge for the game with the next generation.
