How long have you been involved in baseball?

I have been playing baseball since I was three years old.

What do you like best about it?

Hitting dingers!

What team do you play for?

I play with the Williston Youth Athletic Association (WYAA) 8U Marlins.

Would you like to go to college or the Olympics and continue on in baseball?

Share anything else you would like us to know!

I’m a lefty who plays first base and catcher. I love baseball. I strive to be coachable and work hard to be the best. Players make plays!

DID YOU KNOW?

Major League Baseball players have not historically played in the Olympics, as it would halt the regular season. In 2008, the last year baseball was seen at the Olympics, the US roster was filled by minor league players and one college player.
