Career Highlight: First touchdown against Manitowoc.

At what age did you start playing football? Twelve.

Who introduced you to the sport? My brother.

Has this always been your favorite sport? Yes.

How has balancing academics and athletics been different for you from your freshman year to your senior year?
It’s been more important because I know that without good grades you can’t play and the more games that you miss the worse it is cause you dont have many and they go by fast so missing games because of grades is something you realize cannot happen.

What is your favorite part about football?
Playing on the defense and being able to play as a team and put everything that you worked for in the offseason on the field.

What about it has caused you to stick with it for this long?
The ability to play with my closest friends and have all of us together on the field is definitely one key factor but also the constant drive to become better and have your results of working hard show up on the field.

Is there a professional athlete you look up to? If so, who?
Aiden Hutchinson.

What would you say is your biggest asset on the field?
My strength for sure would be my biggest asset.

What has been your most memorable experience in high school sports so far?
Shutting out Sheboygan South and having the best defensive game of my career in that game.

How does it feel as a senior, to look back throughout high school and see your growth (as a person and athlete)?
It is honestly crazy to look at a picture of me from freshman year coming in scared looking like a stick to now growing and putting on a lot of height and weight I dont even look like the same person.

Do you have any pre-match rituals/routines/superstitions?
Taking pre workout and getting a pump before the game for sure would be something I do before each game.

Do you take any extra steps to prepare for a big match/game/meet, outside of regular?
I always lift during the week no matter if its with the team or by myself I will always get at least 2-3 gym sessions in that week and also watch as much film as possible and pick apart the other team.

What has been your favorite experience with being a senior this year?
Switching to Defensive End and performing pretty well at the position ive always wanted to play .

Any memorable coaches or teammates you’d like to give a shout out to?
Definitely my head coach Drew Brusoe. He’s always there for not only me but the whole team and he’s always been there for you since he got to Green Bay West .
Any hobbies outside of sports? Powerlifting.

Favorite movie? The Amazing Spider Man.

Sports drinks like Gatorade and Powerade or water?
Gatorade, Fast Twitch, Body Armor, or Liquid IV.

Future Plans? (college, major, career, etc.)
Go into the trades or enlist in the military.
