What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2027 NFL Draft?
What makes me a top prospect is my versatility of playing any position on the Dline, ability to be coached, and willingness to play whatever role is needed in order to be a successful team.
Tell me about a time you faced adversity and how you responded?
A time I faced adversity was when I was on my way to class for a finals exam and right when I tried to pull of my car broke down. Instead of me coming up with an excuse to not go I proceed to walk to class and still got an A.
What are your hobbies outside of football?
Video games, listening to music, going on walks, volunteer work.

I see myself playing as a rotational player depending on the team that I am on but I ultimately want to play whatever role is needed from me.

How do you handle coaching, especially criticism or being corrected repeatedly?
