Who are some role models in your life?
My brother is a big role model for me. He’s also my coach and trainer, and he’s taught me so much about football and recruiting.

What artists do you listen to pregame, to get you hyped up?
I probably listen to NBA YoungBoy the most before a game. His music really gets me pumped up.

What are the strengths of your game?
Some of my strengths are my hands, my motor, and my pass rush ability. I also think I have good pre-snap awareness, which helps me play faster.

What is your favorite memory of your career?
This past season had a lot of great moments, but if I had to pick one, it would be winning the “Mud Bowl” vs. Jordan after a crazy storm. It was a wild experience.

Who is the best player you have ever played with or against in your career?
The best player I’ve played with is Quinton Cypher. We both play and train together at Millbrook, and we’re always pushing each other to get better.

What is some advice you would give to an aspiring D1 athlete?
Work on your conditioning! It’s crucial in all sports, but in football, it helps you develop a motor that outlasts everyone else—especially when it counts in the 4th quarter.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I’d go somewhere warm where they play a lot of football.

How old were you when you fell in love with the game?
I started playing football in 8th grade, so I’d say I really fell in love with it around 13 years old.

If you could meet one sports hero, who would it be?
I actually got to meet one of my sports heroes—Lawrence Taylor. He came to one of our football games this past season, and I got to talk to him after the game. It was an incredible experience.

What is your favorite sports moment, as a fan?
One of my favorite moments was when the Commanders got Jayden Daniels. Things are turning around for the team! And the Hail Mary they pulled off this year against the Bears was crazy!
