Outside of the professional aspects of my life, I enjoy playing sports outside, every aspect of basketball both professionally and at the amateur levels, working out, and watching entertainment whether that be movies or TV shows, if it's good I'll give it a shot.

​

I grew up in a urban city smushed in between Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas called Colleyville, where I went to Colleyville Heritage for four years where I lettered in Track for all four years. I was a two-time captain, and was one of the first captains to take the track team to state in the 4x400 relay where we were ranked 5th in the nation at one point.

​

After high school, I attended Oklahoma State University, where I completed a B.S. in Sports Media Production. I spent most of my time working endless hours into the night, and innovating new ways for the program to work harder, longer and smarter. I was awarded a couple of scholarships over the course of my education there, eventually graduating with a 3.1 GPA in May 2017.

​

I believe I bring a competitive, winning attitude to any organization. I have a grit about me where I won't allow anyone to outwork me in any aspect. I believe this fiery drive is what will take me over the top in my professional career. I also value transparency in all facets of my life because it allows me to work undistracted, bringing more focus to the lofty goals I set for myself. I have worked with Final Cut Pro X for most of my academic and professional career, however I have literacy in Adobe Products as well, as I used them for KOCO-TV in Oklahoma City during the course of my last spring semester at Oklahoma State.

​

During the last semester at OSU, I had three jobs and was in 15 academic hours as well. I was the play-by-play basketball announcer for 1600 KUSH radio in Cushing High School, driving all kinds of places on Tuesday and Friday nights. I also worked for KOCO-TV (ABC in OKC) on weekend mornings from 2-9 am, where I would edit the morning news shows and perform other tasks as well to help the show operate smoothly. Usually I would bounce from one job to the next disregarding sleep. My final and current job, is working as a Production Associate for DraftExpress.com, where I would edit all types of professional videos for DX. 

​

This being said, this proves that I love to work hard, and the more on my plate, the better I preform. Working this way is just the way I'm built and the way I operate, I typically don't know another speed besides my own.
