Bio

1) Favorite Athlete. Why? 

Stephen Curry. Curry plays like there are more important things in life than basketball -- like his faith is the most important. On and off the court, Curry imitates Christ through his attitudes, words, and actions. He loves his family and prioritizes them after the game of basketball. He leads his team by example through hard work and determination even though he is a younger player.

2) Favorite Sports Memory/Accomplishment. Why? 

 My senior year of high school I played for the first time. The first gamemy team helped me score 4 goals as we won 5-0. That became my permanent position for the remainder of the year. This was my favorite memory because it was a lot of fun to score and play something other than defense, which I had been playing all my life up until that point.

3) Favorite Bible Verse. Why?

1 Corinthains 10:31 "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."

Besidesbeing a verse that I memorized as a child, it is my favorite because it always brings me back to the reason why I do what I do each day -- that is, to glorify God.
