Biography

I started playing basketball around the age of 3 and I have so much love for this game and I am really passionate about it. My grandfather is the person that introduced basketball to me and is the reason why I still play because I never give up whether things go bad or even worst. On the court whether I'm having a good day or a bad day as soon as I step onto the basketball court it clears my mind because I'm having fun. As a point guard I like to pass the ball & score whenever and I am able to and also make a three pointer when I have a open shot available. If I see any of my teammates struggling I give them some advice because I look out for my teammates and I want to see things go well for them. But what I mainly do is work hard in the basketball gym and also lift weights in order to get stronger everyday and prove my doubters wrong and show them that I am able to play at the college level and one day I hope to make an impact on any college team no matter what the division level is. I've been playing on club teams and several showcases since my sophomore year of high school because I have refused to try out for my high school the last few years. My senior year I tried out for the high school team and I unfortunately got cut in the last round of try outs but I overcame that night and played my last year on the club team I play for and also enjoyed every last of it. The fact that I've been cut twice in high school, I use that as motivation to become even more of a better player and I hope I get a second chance to play the sport i am so passionate about in any college one day. Besides basketball I am a great student athlete although if I mess up then I can't play until my academics are up and running good because my education comes first & my family always tells me that education comes first before anything else and to use basketball as a tool. As a city kid I love giving the same advice to people especially younger kids telling them to stay in school and get a good education and make their families proud and surround themselves with positive people because you don't see that around the city I'm from. When I go to college I just want the best for myself so I can be successful in life.
