Personal Statement

Playing football at the collegiate level has been a dream and a driving force behind everything I do both on and off the field. I am highly motivated, coachable, and committed to continuous improvement. Every opportunity to learn and develop my game is something I take seriously, and I take pride in my knowledge of the game and being a player who can quickly adapt, absorb coaching, and lead by example.

I currently attend Saint Thomas Aquinas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida — a nationally recognized program known for its tradition of excellence, player development, and elite-level coaching. Competing and training at Saint Thomas Aquinas has instilled in me the discipline, work ethic, and leadership required to succeed at the highest levels. Being part of such a competitive environment has helped sharpen both my physical skills and my mental toughness, preparing me to contribute and succeed at the next level.

While I am a natural defensive player, last season I was asked to step in and play on the offensive line to help fill a need for the team. I had the opportunity to play both sides of the ball for certain games. I embraced the challenge without hesitation, learning a new position and adapting my skills to do whatever was needed for the success of the team. That experience strengthened my understanding of the game even further and showed my willingness to adapt, trust my coaches, and put the team first.

I am excited to continue my football journey, representing a college program with the same passion, discipline, and pursuit of excellence that I have developed at Saint Thomas Aquinas. I am committed to working relentlessly to reach my full potential and to be a difference-maker both on the field and within the team
