I will always give 100% of whatever is asked of me. Whatever team I am on will get my full and undivided commitment regardless of how good the team is. The only thing that goes harder than me at my best, is the passion that compels me to do my best. I want to be an athlete, because I love to compete, but also because it helps me to be a better person in everyday life. And I want to continue to grow as a person and a young man, and I feel the best way to do that is to push myself to compete at the highest levels the country has to offer. My ultimate goal is to become a film director, and I want to use cross-country and really any sport I can to help me get into a good film school and pursue my passion for film and sports at the same time. I would say I am a very passionate person when it comes to the things I love. But I also really enjoy just having fun, and having a good time. Now I know that the hard work, and hours of training it takes to be a college athlete is not always fun, but the end result is. And that's what makes the whole thing fun to me. I take things one step at a time, but always with the end goal in mind. I also do take my school work and studies very seriously. I don't want to be a stupid athlete. I have never finished a school year so far with a class grade of anything below a B-. And I hope to keep that streak alive as long as I can.
