INTERESTING FACT OR EXPERIENCE THAT HELPED SHAPE LIFE: "I was taught at a very young age, that if I want it, I have to earn it. I've never excepted failure in my vocabulary! My grandfather instilled in me the means to always work harder than everyone else. I wish he was still with me to see this journey I'm on, but I know he's always with me. This sport means the world to me and I'll do whatever it takes to become a top contender and make my friends and family proud."

FAVORITE ARMWRESTLING MEMORY: "My favorite memory is technically still evolving. But from the first day I've started to now, I love hearing how much I continue to get stronger and more versatile. Plus the brotherhood of armwrestlers is second to none!"
BEST ADVICE RECEIVED: Never give up.
BIGGEST OBSTACLE FACED AND OVERCAME: "Playing a lot of sports, I've always had different injuries along the way to overcome... broken left wrist 3 times, broken fingers, ankle surgery... But this sport has grounded me and given the best foundation I've ever had in my life. It's made me get in the best shape of my life, along with testing my determination and dedication. I've very lucky that Nicole supports all the blood sweat and tears I put into this cause without her I couldn't be where I am, nor be pushed harder to where I'm going to be."
