VERIZON EMPLOYEE ➡️ WNBA ➡️ FULL-TIME BASKETBALL TRAINER

———

2017 - HIGHSCHOOL

Graduated Williston HS in Williston, FL … had ZERO offers until my senior year. Went to a showcase camp in Tampa, FL .. had a great showing and secured a ton of Division III / NAIA interest. Decided to play at Lasell University, a DIII school in Newton, MA.

2017-2021 - COLLEGE

Played 2.5 seasons at Lasell, averaged 12ppg / multiple 30pt point games. Tied the record for made 3pt in a single game. Decided to remove myself from the team due to personal reasons & COVID. Graduated with a bachelor’s degree in exercise science. Planned on attending Physical Therapy School after graduating.

2021 - VERIZON EMPLOYEE

After graduating during the COVID-19 pandemic .. my plans on attending physical therapy school was delayed due to school / clinic closures around the state. I decided to get a job at a local Verizon for a couple months until the restrictions were lifted.

Completely removed from the game of basketball at that point … Next thing I know @coachcurtmiller walks in the store to buy a phone. After chatting with him about my story.. he ended up offering me the opportunity to become a male practice player for the Connecticut Sun, WNBA team. That connection changed my life forever and redirected me back to the game I loved.

2021-2023 - WNBA PRACTICE PLAYER / PT AID

As the Covid-19 restrictions were lifted, I ended up leaving Verizon and began working as a Physical Therapy Aid in Avon, CT. While also working part time with the CT SUN as a male practice player during the season. Just learning and making connections at this point as I figured out what I wanted to do with my life. Met some incredible people in the process.

2023 - BASKETBALL TRAINER / PT AID / WNBA

At this point, I was BUSY. Working 3 different jobs in completely different areas of Connecticut. Not sure what my path was gonna be and completely put my faith in God to guide me.

2023 WNBA SZN - WNBA COACHING INTERN / TRAINER

For the 2023 season, I was offered the opportunity to become a coaching intern / player development assistant for the Sun. Learned a ton about the game and developing players.
