Being born and raised in Austin, TX my whole life put me in such a high demand and popular area for football. Playing football has always been one of my favorite sports to participate in (other then wakeboarding) and graduating high school was the last time I was ever going to be able to play due to my size. So wakeboarding was always a love for me and it became my life as soon as football was done. After graduating high school I moved to San Marcos, TX and enrolled at Texas State University. Go Bobcats! I also started working at Texas Ski Ranch which is a premier action sports facility where they provided me with the perfect set up on the cable lake and plenty of friends that love to shred behind the boat. There are several lakes and rivers to go ride on, such as the Guadalupe River, Lake Austin and then TSR's Cable Lake, so riding is pretty much an everyday thing. Now I am a senior at TSU getting my Bachelors Degree in Exercise Sports Science with a Minor in History and I am finishing up getting my Texas teachers certification so one day when I am done being young and wakeboarding, I can go back to the game of football and coach. I am sooo lucky to have such a supportive family and getting to live in a wakeboarder's paradise.
