Hometown
South Lake Tahoe
Aspirations
To find a way to stay in the field of sports because sports in general is my true passion and since I can’t play because of the side effects from the cancer, I would still like to be apart of it in some way.
Hero Strengths
I’m committed to doing a good job, right now for Matt Mumme, the Offensive Coordinator at the University of Nevada here in Reno.
Hero Weaknesses
Sports
Passions/hobbies
Hockey, and anything sports related
Biggest Take-aways From Your Cancer Experience
Life is short and definitely not fair, so take advantage of every moment and opportunity you get.
Top 3 Life Goals
To continue to be apart of sports as my career if it’s hockey, football, baseball or basketball, just being apart of the team atmosphere would be a lot of fun. To be a part of a championship team. To continue to help raise money for childhood cancer research to try and help so no other kid has to deal with what I have to deal with in my life
