At 5'8", I wasn’t supposed to make it. But I did. I walked into the University of Texas as the smallest guy in the room and left with a starting role, a degree, and a shot in the NFL with the Indianapolis Colts.
I beat the odds not just with talent—but with work ethic, grit, and belief in myself when others doubted. That journey taught me that size doesn't determine success—mindset does. It’s a lesson I carry with me into every room I walk into.
After football, I struggled to find my identity beyond the game. For so long, being an athlete defined me—and when it ended, I was lost. Education gave me the chance to rebuild, to lead, and to find purpose in serving others.
I didn’t just become an educator—I became someone who shows students and families that they don’t have to be limited by the labels they’re given. Every day, I work to create opportunities for students to discover who they are, not who the world says they should be.
Practice Squad Leadership is more than a book—it’s a call to lead with purpose, both on and off the field. It was shaped by lessons from the locker room, strengthened through years in education, and proven in the real world of leadership, where consistency and character matter most.
This message is for those who know leadership isn’t about titles or recognition—it’s about preparation, perseverance, and purpose. Practice Squad Leadership challenges you to lead where you are, with what you have, until your moment comes.

I don’t speak to impress—I speak to connect. My talks are rooted in real life, real struggle, and real growth. I open up about my failures, insecurities, and how I found strength in vulnerability.
Whether I’m speaking to a room of teenagers, parents, or school leaders, my goal is the same: to inspire with authenticity and leave people better than I found them. I believe stories change lives—and I use mine to help others believe in theirs.
