What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft?
Personally, what makes me a prospect at my position in the 2025 NFL Draft is my ability to play anywhere on the Defensive Line, I can play anywhere from the interior all the way to the edge which brings versatility to my game. I love the position, and everything included with it.
What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?
One thing about myself is I am willing to do whatever is best for the team, personally individual statistics mean nothing to me, if the team does not come out victorious. So therefore, I want NFL teams to know I am totally selfless and will do whatever I need to help the team.
If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?
I would donate to kids battling cancer and need treatments, having two parents who both beat cancer, it has a very special place in my heart, and I am willing to do anything to give back.
Who was your role model?
My role model growing up was my father, he always told me to do the right thing and his work ethic and ability to operate with adversity was key to my success and taught me so much about myself.
Who is your favorite NFL team?
My favorite team is the New York Jets, J-E-T-S, JETS! JETS! JETS!
Who is the most underrated teammate at your school?
Personally, I believe our Center is the most underrated teammate, he is completely selfless and has to snap the ball every play and battle a defensive lineman. They are key to a great team.
What is your biggest pet peeve?
My biggest pet peeve is unappreciative people, and people who are not willing to sacrifice for the greater benefit of something in life. Instant pleasure would have to be my biggest pet peeve.
Who is your favorite teacher ever
My favorite teacher ever would have to be my advisor Jessica Dunlap, now her last name is Kane because of marriage. She has led me to success in college and really helped me with every step of help I needed throughout the process.
Overcoming adversity is what defines character, what was the hardest moment in your life to overcome?
The hardest moment of my life was battling with two parents with cancer at the same time, my dad having Leukemia and my mom battling breast cancer at the same point in my life. At this time, I was in Highschool trying to get recruited in order to play college ball, so the mental battle of my parents and trying to get recruited was the toughest moment in my life.
If you could have any franchise restaurant in your house, what would it be?
It would have to be Chipotle, simple, easy and I can still hit all of my macros with the food provided. But personally, I probably would still cook for myself because that has always been a hobby for me.
What is your favorite snack food?
My favorite snack food would have to be no-bakes, they are just oats, peanut butter and chocolate chips mashed up rolled into little balls.
What is your degree in?
Business Management and Marketing.
If you could have dinner with three people dead or alive, who would it be and why?
I would want to have dinner with Micheal Jordan, Nate Diaz, and lastly Aaron Donald. With different personalities from all three of these people I feel like I could sponge off enough information from these successful gentlemen in order to really grow myself as a person from learning from their experiences on how to be great mentally and physically in their career.
What is your biggest weakness?
My biggest weakness is never being happy with where I am at, I never stop smelling the roses around me, and I am always thinking in the future. Some may call this a strength, but I consider this a weakness and have been doing much better on being exactly where my feet are at. 2
