Personal
Consistency and power at the plate. 95-100mph exit velocity, 80-85 mph arm from outfield
Can play all outfield positions, primarily a corner outfielder by trade. Originally a first and third baseman with some shortstop experience, but always thrived on the corners throughout my early baseball career.
I’m a guy whose presence is felt in any baseball setting; practice and game. I love talking hitting with teammates, picking brains on what’s working and areas of improvement.
I’m having the most fun I’ve ever had in my last season of college ball. Bringing that energy while also being someone known for being laser focused and prepared at game time. I may not be a captain by title, but I’m recognized as a leader by my team
Career highlights
VTSU Lyndon all-time home run leader (15 and counting)
2nd in career slugging % (.471)
3rd in career RBI (71 and counting)
2026 career season .346 (27-78) 3 2B, 4 HR, 16 RBI, .538 slugging, .960 OPS, .422 OBP
Overseas Goals
I want to continue to be around the game I love and maximize my potential as a player.
I love working with kids, and being able to grow the game of baseball to the next generation is my life’s mission. I’m also in the process of finishing my Master’s degree in Athletic Leadership, and being able to teach and coach overseas will also allow me to fulfill my internship requirements.
