Why I Chose Knox
The reason for my decision to come to Knox College is that Knox allowed me the opportunity to study my field of interest while continuing my baseball career

When I'm Not At The Gym/Field You Can Find Me
In the Physics Lounge (D111 in SMC) or in the SMC library.

Why I Love My Sport
Baseball has given me the positive influence to stay focus in academics and away from the streets of Chicago where I would possibly instead had negative influences in life. Baseball also has also taught me hard work and how to handle and adjust to failure.

What I Am Looking Forward To In College
Developing myself to become a better man while building relationships I would not make anywhere else.

Career Goals
To become a professional baseball player and to become a Theoretical Physicist studying Quantum Gravity.

Greatest Athletic Accomplishment So Far
Playing College Baseball
