ABOUT ME: Fell in love with sports at a very young age and as I grew, so did my passion. Received a scholarship to play college baseball at the University of Oregon. Throughout my journey I was blessed with the opportunity to connect with many amazing people and travel around the country to some extraordinary places. An elbow injury during my freshman year of college required “Tommy John” surgery, which concluded my first season as a duck. Two years later my elbow required a nerve transportation surgery. After countless hours of rehab, two surgeries, and three cortisone injections, my baseball career eventually came to a bittersweet end and I hung up the cleats.
