To the creepy stalker that for some reason clicked on my name for no reason, let me tell you about my life. When you ask who someone is you find it can be a long and complicated or short and simple. Most people say their sport as who they are; so if they play basketball they’ll tell you they’re a basketball player. If you were to ask me, I would tell you a above all things I’m a man of god. Yes, I wrestle for Warrenton, and I’m quite good at it if I do say so myself. But in my head, all my efforts and achievements come from, and are because of, God.

 

Ive been going to church all my life. Most of my family are christians, and they have been able to guide me down a path of rightiousness. The friends I hold closest to my heart are the ones who I share the relationship with God with. This is because I believe you are what your five closest friends are. For example, If your friends do a bunch of drugs, you are probably goung to do a bunch of drugs. So I surround myself with Christ loving friends to hold me accountable so I can be like, yeah, probably shouldn't do/say that again.

 

I am a two time state qualifier for what I believe is the hardest sport out there, wrestling. I’m looking forward to going to state again this year! ALthough, its going to be a fight as I have one of the hardest districts brackets in all of missouri. It consists of two state champion quality wrestlers with multiple state medalists wrestlers. I am currently predicted to take 5th place at districts and I need to take 4th to go to state. I am going to put in as much hard work as possible so I can be confident when I go out there and step on the mat with my opponent.

 

I come from a very large family, I’m one of nine to be exact. I am the youngest out of the nine but I am most certainly the loudest! I’m also a twin and you best believe I come with the twin package. I love my twin, but there are also days I want to rip his head off, or I just really can’t understand why he does something, especially when he drives! My mom had me at forty-three so my big brothers and sister played a huge roll in my life as I grew up. Iv’e learned countless invaluable lessons from them and love them so much. I can say I am who I am today because of them, my mom and dad, and most importantly, God.
