I start everyday with being excited to help change the lives of athletes and provide the tools and resources they need to succeed in college athletics. I’m extremely grateful to have the opportunity to talk sports and be a part of such a great organization that can have such a great impact in bettering the future of the next generation of athletes. I’m from Xenia, Ohio but moved at a very young age to Somerset, Kentucky. However, I have tremendous love for the Chicago area as most of my family is from there and I consider it to be some what of a second home to me. Growing up, I spent most of my childhood and teenage years playing basketball, which really sparked my love for sports. Although I wasn’t the most athletically gifted person, I can say it never stopped me from enjoying the game.
I attended Southwestern High School before furthering my education at Eastern Kentucky University where I studied Business Management and enjoyed playing various intramural sports with my fraternity brothers and close friends. In my free time I love to travel to new places as much as I can, get a workout, be surrounded by good friends, and talk all things football. My sports fandom lies with the Chicago Bears, but generally I enjoy the entire NFL and playing in way too many fantasy football leagues. This is just the start of my career in sports and I’m excited to help change as many lives as I can.
