PERSONAL INFORMATION		  
Describe Your Playing Style?: Catching is my passion and a huge piece of my life. I have already had two great years of playing a high level of college baseball. I have grown so much as a person and player between my freshman and sophomore year of college. I feel my fundamentals are very strong. I call a good game and always work hard behind the plate. Framing the ball and blocking and my arm strength are three areas I feel I excel in. Batting- I am smart but aggressive. I really try to use my power but I am selective on my pitches. I am very competitive and want to win every time I step on the field. I appreciate everything that goes into the game and try to enjoy and work hard at it all the time.

Who's been the biggest influence on my sports career and why?: Willie Bloomquist has been the biggest influence on my sports career. I grew up spending time around him and lot a lot of his big league teammates. This has pushed me ever since I was a little kid to be just like them one day. Everyday I think of that and try to get better at something everyday.
My parents are also both influencers on my sports career too. They are always willing to drop anything to make sure I have everything I need to succeed.

I am a strong Christian and always put God first in everything I do. I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I have a younger sister, Tatum who attends and plays soccer at the University of Washington
