About Me

I am a 6'2" Class of 2023 combo guard -- holding a 3.46 GPA at Moravian Academy in Bethlehem, PA.  I am often used to facilitate the offense with a pass-first mentality, but am known to shoot the ball well, and for my off-ball ability to impact the game.

​

I play for the newly organized Team Jenkins AAU program.  With their guidance, I had a good showing during the summer 2021 Live Period, ending the season with a 17-point game in the Hoop Group Atlantic City Jam Fest.  As a result, I have garnered the interest of college coaches.

​

Over the next year I will work to convert those college interests into offers.  I tend to gain attention with my basketball IQ -- particularly recognizing shifts in opponent defensive strategies, understanding how to move without the ball, shooting well, and applying hard-nose defense.  I plan to improve all-around. 

​

I've train with Horace Jenkins aka Coach "H" (retired NBA and Overseas professional) and have done so since age 12.  More recently, I've also been training under Sammy Barona (retired Overseas professional).

 

Although  Moravian Academy  administers a rigorous college academic prep program, I've maintained Honors status throughout my high school career.   I appreciate the life-balance approach at Moravian which allows me to manage my time well between playing at the Varsity level, performing volunteer work, and participating in club activities, all while prioritizing my academics. 

 

During my early spring 2021 tenure with the PA Runnin' Aces AAU program, I was described by Program Director, Coach Jay Joseph to have the following qualities:

​

  • Strong

  • Defensive-minded

  • Mid Range scoring ability

  • Shoot the 3

  • Finishes in traffic

  • Facilitator

​

I started playing basketball at age 5, spending the majority of my pre- high school basketball play with the East Side Youth Center under Director, Marlon Thomas in Allentown, PA.
