My collegiate goals are to graduate, become a contributing member to society and make a change in the world. I firmly believe that getting good grades and helping others come before athletics. My military family background has taught me the importance of honoring your family and those around you. The military background has affected my life in the biggest way possible. Baseball has showed me the intelligence that I possess and how I can put it into good use outside of the classroom. I became interested in baseball when my freshmen season ended, although it was a rough season I realized that this is the game I love and I want to extend my career in baseball to its fullest.
