From a young age I always knew I wanted to be a collegiate football player. My competitive mindset and driven worth ethic have propelled me to achieve things I never dreamt possible, especially as a young kid growing up on the island of O'ahu. Lacking confidence at a young age, I felt overwhelmed by all the possibilities my future had in store for me. After establishing myself in the sport, I thought I had it all figured out, but circumstances forced me to step out of my comfort zone and leave the place I call home, making me question my love for the game. I only had myself to rely on to navigate my way through adversity, knowing that I had so much more left to prove. After making tough decisions and overcoming obstacles, my passion for the game has grown stronger than ever before and continues to motivate me to turn a young island kid’s dreams into a reality. A humble leader, a passionate competitor and a trustworthy teammate are characteristics that I am known for.
