About
I am a dedicated student-athlete and senior at Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, NV. I believe excellence is a continuous journey, not a final destination, and I am committed to forging my own path to success both academically and athletically. Driven by a passion for storytelling and meaningful representation, I aspire to become a sports broadcaster and entertainment attorney—using my voice to elevate the sports world and advocate for those within it.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My long-term goal is to build a career at the intersection of sports media and law. I plan to begin in sports broadcasting—working as an on-air reporter, analyst, or host—to develop a strong foundation in storytelling, athlete advocacy, and the dynamics of the sports industry. From there, I intend to pursue a law degree with a focus on entertainment and sports law, building expertise in areas such as NIL policy, contracts, intellectual property, and athlete representation. Ultimately, I hope to combine my on-air experience with legal training to work in roles that bridge both fields, such as representing athletes and creators, advising media organizations, or shaping policy across the evolving sports and entertainment landscape.
