Personal Statement
- I am an Australian punter, kicker (mainly kickoff) and DB. I train with Punt Factory Australia with Sav Rocca and Darren Bennett and am getting stronger and more consistent every week. I have good hands and am able to kick both spirals and roll out directional drop punts (Aussie / rugby style) with control.
- I am a team first player who helps others around me be better. Growing up as a multi-sport athlete I have played Australia football, soccer at the elite level and basketball before finding American football in 2019. I found that kicking and punting came naturally after learning those skills in other sports but have also loved playing as safety and corner back in additional to special teams. This tackling skill helps on kickoff / punt if the returner breaks through the line.
- This year I received my 3rd invitation to the Victoria all state team and will compete in the national championship in April 2023.
- On the sports field is where I feel the most free and to be myself. Playing elite representative level soccer since I was 11 I have learned a lot about how I react under pressure.
- I have I have learned to never give up always give my best regardless of the score. I support my team-mates and put the team success ahead of myself.
I see that my sport can help me achieve my goals of completing a business degree in the US. I am a solid student and aim to be diligent in my studies and complete my business degree in addition to my football duties.
I look forward to being a valuable contributor to a college program.
