Defense: Your Wor...Personal Statement
My goal is to play Division I basketball and ultimately reach the NBA. While pursuing my basketball career, I also plan to earn a degree in Psychology or a related field. I bring a strong combination of defensive and offensive skills to any team I join, but I know that talent alone is never enough. Hard work and dedication are what set apart truly great individuals, regardless of their profession—and I live by that every single day.
I am a hard worker, tough, determined, and always lead by example. I am fully committed to doing whatever it takes to succeed, not just for myself but for my team as a whole. As a point guard, I take pride in facilitating the offense, engaging my teammates, and creating opportunities that elevate our collective performance. My leadership extends beyond the game itself—I provide confidence and composure in crucial moments, ensuring that my teammates know they can count on me when it matters most.
What separates me from the pack is my unmatched determination, relentless tenacity, and the ability to rise to any challenge. I am passionate, dedicated, and highly skilled, but more importantly, I am coachable and thrive in a team environment. I will always put in the work, push my teammates to be their best, and do whatever it takes to help my team secure victory.

- Camp/Event
- Point Guard College - PGC Basketball
- 7/18/23 to 7/23/23
- This camp goes beyond developing point guard skills and habits—it prepares players to be true leaders both on and off the court. Through the concept of 'sheepdog leadership,' players learn the energy and mindset required to lead effectively. A key focus is on care—teaching athletes how to build trust and confidence with every teammate. By developing these leadership skills, players will not only elevate their game but also inspire and unite those around them, becoming the kind of leader every team needs to succeed.
- Camp/Event
- Scoring College - PGC Basketball
- 6/27/22 to 7/01/22
- The Scoring Camp is designed to elevate basketball IQ and accelerate player development faster than anyone else on the team. It addresses the most common mistake that keeps 99% of high school players on the bench and teaches strategies to avoid it. Players will develop an ‘attack mindset,’ making them the hardest to guard on the court while gaining the confidence to take on any defender one-on-one. The camp also focuses on identifying and exploiting the seven most common defensive weaknesses, giving players a competitive edge and the tools to become unstoppable scorers.
