I am an aspiring, hard working, student athlete who takes pride and focus my efforts relentlessly to succeed in the classroom &  in the football field. Since starting with the San Ramon Bears (our local football team) at age 7, I have given my best and have strived to set a higher bar every season, which culminated into me being the starting Quarterback (southpaw) my last 2 seasons with the Bears. I am so looking forward to starting my High school career in the Fall of 2022; and have been blessed with the opportunity to lead the California High JV football team this season! I look forward to continue to work hard, building the team, earning respect from my teammates and my coaches. As my dad always told me, "Chase excellence every single day; success will chase you!" What drives me every single day is my aspiration to be the First Indian American QBI in Collegiate football; break the proverbial glass ceiling so to speak and make my parents/grandparents proud! 

I consider myself to be introspective, hard working, a committed team player/leader, with an undying passion for this great game of football and most importantly, I cherish every day the growth/learnings I get from my coaches/parents. 

I intend to pursue a STEM/Business degree in College and build my life around this great game as a player/coach/mentor in the future.
