Wrestling has been a central part of my life, shaping who I am both personally and professionally. Throughout high school and into college, I dedicated myself to the sport, and it led me to an incredible opportunity as a redshirt on the Ohio University wrestling team.During my time at Ohio University, I had the privilege of living the life of a Division 1 athlete. I worked tirelessly on the mat, dedicating hours each day to training with two practices a day. This experience taught me the discipline, resilience, and commitment required to compete at the highest level.Though I ultimately decided to leave the team for personal reasons, the relationships I built with my teammates and coaches have had a lasting impact on me. I am grateful for the lessons learned and the chance to grow as both an athlete and an individual. Wrestling will always be a significant part of my life, and I carry those experiences with me as I move forward.

As the Social Media Manager for Ohio Bobcat Wrestling, I oversaw the Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok accounts, creating all graphics and content. My efforts significantly boosted our online presence, growing the Instagram following from 1,800 to 4,000 and generating over 400,000 impressions. On Twitter, the account maintained a strong following of 25,000.I handled all fan interactions, managed live feeds for dual meets, and provided real-time updates during tournaments—often while balancing my responsibilities as a full-time student-athlete. One of the highlights was engaging with prominent entities like the Chicago Bears, who re-posted our content, as well as interacting with alumni who helped us further grow our presence.This role gave me invaluable insights into the backend of sports media, a field I’m passionate about. Balancing this with my commitments on the wrestling team and in school was challenging, but it was an incredibly rewarding experience that I thoroughly enjoyed.

As the Assistant Wrestling Coach for the New Trier High School varsity team during the 2023 season, I was deeply involved in all aspects of the program.

One of the highlights of the season was helping secure a thrilling 34-33 victory over my alma mater, Glenbrook South.Beyond the wins, my role was focused on developing a talented group of young athletes, helping them unlock their full potential both on and off the mat. This experience also allowed me to grow as a leader, mentoring the next generation of wrestlers and fostering a strong, cohesive team culture.

During my time at Glenbrook South, I took the initiative to create and manage a Barstool account dedicated to promoting our sports teams. Starting from scratch, I designed engaging graphics for the wrestling team, football, and other sports, aiming to generate excitement and school spirit across our campus.Through strategic content creation, including game day updates, “Almost Friday” posts, and other buzzworthy material, I grew the account to over 3,000 followers by my senior year—remarkable considering our senior class had only 900 students. This account became a go-to source for unfiltered, student-driven content, hyping up not just football but all our school’s sporting events.Before graduating, I passed the account down to two juniors, ensuring its legacy continues. Today, the account boasts over 5,000 followers, continuing to provide the same vibrant, school-spirit-filled content that I started.

I worked with ages 6-12 and got to learn how to organize and ref football games. This helped me a lot with patience and how to help out when needed. This also advanced my communication skills, talking to coaches and parents. I learned that you can't always please everyone but to just do your job to your best ability and hopefully that is enough.
