I’m a quarterback who built his career through a different path - no offers out of high school in central Indiana. I walked on at Indiana State University and earned a spot on the leadership committee as a true freshman. I saw the field early, scoring a touchdown on my very first collegiate play. The next year I went on to pass for 2,559 yards and 19 touchdowns as a redshirt sophomore, earning All-Conference honors.

When a coaching change relegated me to the bench, I made the move to Colorado School of Mines as a graduate transfer, where I threw for 3,858 yards and led the nation with 39 touchdown passes—all while earning my Master’s in Econometrics.

I was invited to mini-camp with the Saskatchewan Roughriders and earned a training camp contract. As a rookie, I stepped into a must-win start and delivered, going 23-of-28 for 218 yards to clinch home field advantage for the playoffs. I spent two more seasons with the Roughriders before signing with the BC Lions, and later continued my career with the Billings Outlaws of the Arena Football League. There, I led the league as regular season MVP, captured the ArenaBowl XXXIII championship and MVP honors, and posted a top-15 all-time passer rating of 125.1 with 38 touchdowns and just 2 interceptions.

My career has been fueled by grit, growth, and the relentless pursuit of excellence—both on the field and off it.
