Q: How do you think you took advantage of the extra year of eligibility to increase your chances of going pro?

Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?

Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?

I am a fun person and easy to be around. Chemistry is important on a defense and a team and I always bring people together for further development of the team.

All I want is an opportunity to let my skill speak for itself.
