What other schools offered you and what about Navy made you come here? I had a few from FCS and D2 programs. I came to Navy to be able to compete at the highest level, the opportunities outside of football that will provide me a quality life and to be able to build meaningful relationships with high class people.

What would you tell somebody that is considering coming to Navy to play football? 
You will become a fundamentally sound player and will have a chance to show your ability in big time games and you do not have to give up your dream to play on Sunday if you are good enough.

If you could play another position, what position would you play and why?  If I could play any other position it would be quarterback. It would be nice to have the ball in my hands every play and I like the responsibility to be the decision maker on any given play.

If you could choose any opponent for Navy to play that is currently not on the schedule, who would you choose and why?  I would choose to play at LSU. I think going against them would be another elite opportunity to compete. Their stadium and fan base would make the game fun to play in.

Favorite class at the Naval Academy and why?   My favorite classes so far has been Micro and Macroeconomics. I have been able to discuss so many concepts like supply and demand, taxes, tariffs, trade, the federal reserve system, gross domestic product and a lot more. I could discuss economics for hours.

Favorite teacher at the Naval Academy?  Professor Karen Thierfelder. She's does a great job of explaining material and encouraging students to ask questions about concepts we learn in microeconomics. 

Favorite form of social media and why? Instagram. It's a good app to keep up with friends and watch reels similar to TikTok.

Favorite person to follow on social media and why?  Dave Ramsey. Always great information and discussions.

If you could have dinner with any 4 people that are currently at the Naval Academy who would you choose? Giuseppe Sessi, Tyler Bradley, Braxton Woodson and Isaiah Bryant
