When did you become introduced to the game of football?
I started playing football when I was six years old. I started playing football at King Grant located on the West Bank and I am still playing with a few guys I started with.
What are somethings that football has taught you?
Being mentally tough, understanding that everything in life may not go your way but you have to keep working especially being at John Curtis, I’ve learned to show up and just work.
What kind of football player are you?
I try my best not to put myself in a category. I’ll say I consider myself a deep threat; I will have my best success in a spread offense and in a situation were I am one on one with a guy.
What is the best game you have ever played in so far?
The state Championship game with my teammates was an overall great game, in all aspects we dominate on offense, defense and special teams.

I consider myself a homebody person especially being a two-sport athlete. I rarely have time to go out.

My position coach (Coach Kyle) has played a big role in my position at running back. I love playing wide receiver and plan to play it in college but for now I enjoy being coached by Coach Kyle at running back.

Tyreek Hill is a big reason why I love playing both running back and wide receiver, especially knowing he played both positions at Oklahoma State.

My speed, I love being in the open field, taking angles away from defenders, and making guys miss.
