WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD?
I chose to attend Linfield because of its history of having such a strong culture. Both of my parents graduated from Linfield, I have a number of friends who are attending it, and I have heard nothing but positive things about what kind of school Linfield is. I know that while attending Linfield I will receive some of the best coaching in the entire country on the football field, and the highest level of education in the classroom that will set me up for success in the future.
 
WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU?
It means so much to me. I am extremely grateful to be able to play football for one of the best programs in the whole country among all levels, while also receiving my education from such a prestigious university. I feel very proud to be a student-athlete at Linfield.
 
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON?
Sports can teach us so much, especially the game of football. Throughout the years, the game of football has taught me how to be a great teammate. Especially as the quarterback, it's my job to lead the team on and off the field. Playing the quarterback position has helped give me tools that I can use for the rest of my life.
 
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS?
In 10 years, I see myself playing professional football somewhere. Whether it be in the NFL or overseas, my goal is to play the sport I love for as long as possible.
