I grew up in Kansas City, Missouri, where basketball has always been more than just a game to me—it's been my way of pushing myself to be better every single day. From early morning workouts to late-night film sessions, I've learned that success on the court comes from consistent effort and mental toughness. Playing basketball has taught me the true meaning of teamwork. I've learned to trust my teammates, communicate under pressure, and understand that individual talent means nothing without collective effort. Whether I'm facilitating plays or locking down on defense, I pride myself on doing whatever my team needs to win. What drives me most is the challenge of competing against myself and others. Every practice is an opportunity to refine my skills, and every game tests my preparation and resolve. I'm not the loudest person in the gym, but I let my work ethic and dedication speak for me. As I look toward playing at the next level, I'm committed to bringing the same determination and team-first mentality that has shaped who I am as both a player and a person.
