I’m apart of Flag Star because I love being around football and I enjoy being able to share my knowledge of the game with the youth of today.

Who was your childhood sports hero:
My favorite sports hero as a child was Troy Polamalu

My favorite youth coach was a guy named Sean Powell and he taught me how to work hard, listen and have fun at practice and the wins will come on game day.
Who’s the best friend you made through sports:
Martavious Griffin is a friend of mine from back home. We played basketball and football together and we also did track & field together. He became a brother to me because we were always around each other.
What’s your most cringe-worthy sports moment / biggest failure:
Funny story, in high school I had a chance to score a touchdown but the field was so slippery that when i tried to scoop and score my foot slipped and I fell down and missed the ball. My biggest lesson from that was focus on the task at hand which was picking up the ball.

My off-field hobbies are playing online with friends and spending time with family.
