I am a proud graduate of North Carolina Central University, where I played football and dedicated myself to both academic and athletic excellence. My passion for sports started in youth league and took me to high school, where I was a multi-sport athlete. At Friendly High School, I played football and was part of a state championship-winning team during my senior year.

My experience as a student-athlete taught me the importance of discipline, hard work, and perseverance. These qualities have been invaluable in my personal and professional life, guiding me in my journey beyond the field. After continuing my football career at North Carolina Central University, I realized that my passion for sports extended beyond playing, inspiring me to help others achieve their athletic dreams.

This passion led me to my current role as a Recruiting Specialist at NCSA, where I have the privilege of connecting with families and guiding them through the often complex recruiting process. Helping student-athletes find the right opportunities for their future is more than just a job to me; it is a deeply fulfilling mission.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is building strong relationships with families and seeing the impact we can make in their lives. I am committed to providing comprehensive support and guidance, ensuring that each family feels confident and informed throughout their recruiting journey. Additionally, I am fortunate to work with a team of colleagues who share my enthusiasm and dedication to helping student-athletes succeed.

As a team player who is determined and always willing to give my best effort, I approach each day with the same mindset I had as an athlete: ready to work hard and support my team. I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of young athletes and am excited to continue this journey with NCSA.
