Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season?

To be first team all conference and to break records. I broke multiple scoring records as well as earning first team all conference being 8/9 on FG (one missed was blocked).

Q: What would your coaches and teammates say about the type of player you are?

What coaches and players would say is that I am a hard worker on and off the field. I am a good teammate and am easily coachable.

Q: When you are studying film, what do you focus on to improve your game?

Watching what the returners to on kickoff is what I strategize where I’m going to place the ball on kickoffs and film of myself, I like to record me kicking so I can slow down the film and see if I am staying fundamentally correct.

Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position?

What separates me is that I am not only a kicker, but the fastest kid on the field. I am very athletic for my position, placing my ceiling for even more potential even higher.

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

My offseason I will be staying in shape my lifting specific parts of my body to help my position. I will also be kicking any chance I get to be ready for any opportunities that come my way.

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

On and off the field I’m a good teammate. I always push others as well as myself to get better.

Q: What is your final pitch to the NFL or any other pro leagues?

I am a talented kicker that is only continuing to get better. I am a perfectionist so I will continue to master my craft until I am as close to as perfect as possible. With the right kicking coach, I don’t believe there is anything in my way from being great and standing out from others. Also, my speed was able to be used on squib kicks as well as fake punt runs. (4-5 runs for first downs) I am and will be ready for any opportunity that comes my way.
