Tell me about your family.

“I have two brothers – Jake is a senior with me at Bay Port, and my younger brother Tyler is a seventh-grader at Bay View Middle School. My mom graduated from Pulaski and my dad from Bay Port.”

You and Jake are twins?

“Yes. Some people don’t know that – even some of the teachers think we are cousins when they see our last name, but Jake is five minutes older than me.”

I know Jake has been involved in lots of sports over the years, but what about you?

“I played softball and volleyball when I was younger but nothing in high school. I thought about playing volleyball here, but I just never did.”

Besides being a twin with Jake, is there something about you most people wouldn’t know?

“Not many people realize that I haven’t missed one of his sporting events in a really long time. I’m a big supporter.”

What’s been your favorite sport of his to watch?

“Football but I also like watching baseball because it’s warmer. It was hard to see Jake get hurt in football at the end of the season.”

Do you and your family travel a lot?

“We like to go to Gulf Shores, Alabama. I think this year will be our seventh time going. We just rent a condo and spend time on the beach over spring break.”

Fast forward 10 years from now – what will your life be like?

“I hope to be a special education teacher either in a middle school or a high school. Depending on the timing, maybe starting a family, too.”

Would you like to stay around here?

“I’ll probably stay in Wisconsin, maybe around here. My family is important to me.”

What’s on your music playlist?

“Pretty much anything but a lot of country.”

What three words best describe you?

In your lifetime, where are three places you’d like to visit?

“Africa to do service work, Bora Bora and Spain.”

How about a place in the USA?

“New York City.”

Can you speak Spanish pretty well?

“I’ve been taking Spanish for six or seven years, so in a conversation, I can pick up the majority of things.”

Finish this sentence: on Sunday mornings, you can usually find me …

“Sleeping or eating breakfast.”
