I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. I have been immersed in sports ever since I was 5 years old and have played sports such as basketball, football, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, baseball, and hockey. I am an avid fan of the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL. I am a die-hard Baltimore Ravens fan as well as a passionate fan of the Baltimore Orioles, Golden State Warriors, and Los Angeles Kings. Through following these sports teams, I have become obsessed with the game within the game, sports management. I follow roster moves extensively and am fascinated by the world of negotiations and contracts. Not only do I follow these sports but I also play basketball and football at the varsity level for my high school. Over the summer of 2023, I got accepted into and attended the Sport Management & Leadership Academy at the UMass Amherst Summer Pre-College program. This program further confirmed to me that sports management was the career path I wanted to devote myself to.
