What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

He loves being versatile and available for the needs of his teammates in and outside the game.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

He’s inspired by LeBron James and his mom that he was grateful to be there for his games and enrolled him in as many of the academic programs as possible. All while being an enthusiastic student and stylist on the road. Wasn’t easy however he loves a professional that’s pursuing their career.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

I was the proudest when my son asked me if he could attend public school to follow his basketball and track programs and he actually kept his word. I had to really think about it and I agreed to support him since Latham Christian academy didn’t have a strong academic background. It wasn’t an easy transition because of the culture shock however he’s doing it. That’s what makes me the proudest.
