I am a child of God, my actions reflect my values. I am trying to do something rare, I am trying to become a high level Division 1 athlete out of Minnesota. Men's volleyball is primarily dominated by the south and the east. Growing up in Minnesota I never had the opportunities to play high-level like other kids had. My dad founded my highschool team, was integral in sanctioning men's volleyball in Minnesota and led my team to a state championship in 2022. Along with the local restraints, as the oldest of 3 and club volleyball to pay for I couldn't fly 10 hours for a 2 day camp with a professional Coach. I got here on hard work, and God's love. I attribute all my good works to him and the ability he gave me, I want to be vocal about how I was able to find a spot on this incredible roster and try to grow the game of volleyball in Minnesota!
