I played D3 College baseball for Claremont McKenna College in Los Angeles California. After college, I spent a year playing in the United States with the Los Angeles Legends (LABL) and the Los Angeles Raptors (PCBL). In 2021, I began my overseas career as a pitcher for UVV Utrecht in the Honkbal Overgangsklasse in the Netherlands.

In college my fastball was 83-85 MPH, but after graduating, I increased my velocity to 88-91, working with a fastball / changeup mix. Between the PCBL and LABL (including playoffs), I went 7-1 while posting a 1.08 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, 12.6 K/9, 3.6 BB/9 over 45 innings with 70 strikeouts. I was named Championship CO-MVP of the PCBL and Championship MVP of the LABL. In 2021, I pitched for UVV Utrecht posting a 2.79 ERA over 38.2 innings as both a starting and relief pitcher.

In 2022, I was promoted to the Dutch Hoofdklasse, playing with the Hoofddorp Pioniers. I had a bit of a learning curve adapting to more advanced hitting, leading the league in homeruns allowed in my first year of service while pitching to a 6.70 ERA. I spent that next offseason with an 8 month training period at Driveline where I replaced my fastball with a sinker and increased my velocity to 94 MPH. This allowed to pitch to more weak contact in the zone, lower my pitch counts, and walk less batters.

In 2023, I hit my stride in the league with the Amsterdam Pirates, allowing just 3 runs on 8 hits over my last 19.2 innings of work and helping to bring home the Holland Series Championship. I also spent part of the 2023 season playing in tournaments such as the Europe Cup, Prague Baseball Week, Sint Maarten Invitational, and Aguascalientes Mexico Torneo de Beisbol, picking up a lot of experience in high pressure games. I finished 2023 summer in Indy Ball in America with the Salem-Keiser Volcanoes, again facing an initial learning curve against higher level hitting before making adjustments. In my final game with the Volcanoes, I pitched to 1 run over 6 IP to get the win in a playoff elimination game. I then played in the Japan Winter League to finish the year, and after making some adjustments to the higher competition level, signed a contract with the Ishikari Red Phoenix for the summer 2024 season. Between all my leagues and teams in 2023, I finished the year with an 11-4 record over 112.2 innings pitched and a 3.95 ERA.

2020-2023 I worked a full time remote engineering job while playing. However, I am now quitting that job and fully committed to focusing on my baseball career. I will update here about the 2024 summer season in Japan and will be looking for a place to play winter 2024. My summer contract ends on October 15, 2024 and I will be available after that.

As for pitching development, I am currently working on increasing my velocity as well as master a Curveball/Slider to pair with my Sinker and Changeup so that I can increase my strikeout rates.

Heres a pitching video from Driveline and Prague Baseball Week 2023:

Overseas Baseball Goals: 
I’m looking for a team where I can have a large impact on the mound. My goal is become the best player I can be, compete at the highest levels I can, and win championships along the way. I aim one day to compete in the top overseas leagues such as in Japan, Korea, Mexico, and Australia.
