Bio

What is your major? 
Biblical Studies and Secondary Education with a World History emphasis.

When did you start playing basketball?
I started in 8th grade.

What is your favorite memory on the basketball court?
Playing basketball in High School with my sister Ronnie, and now playing college basketball with her!

What have you enjoyed most about this season?
The great coaches and my teammates. I'm loving the great Christian atmosphere here, going from two or three guys on my High School team who were Christians to the whole team here at Emmaus being believers.

Why did you decide to attend Emmaus?
The Lord opened up some doors for me so that my sister and I could go to the same college, learn more about God, and play ball together.

What are your plans after you graduate from Emmaus?
I am not 100% sure, but I would like to work with youth in some way.  Maybe become an EMT and, Lord willing, marry my beautiful girlfriend, Emma, sometime soon.

What is your favorite passage of Scripture?
“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.  You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let
your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."  Matthew 5:13–16


Its a good reminder that we (Christians) cannot disappear with our
faith.  We were put here on this earth to worship our Lord and Savior
and spread His love and Word to all those who are lost.
