I am native of Houston, TX, a graduate of The University of St Thomas, and a product of FBISD.  While at university I studied English Literature with a focus on Literary Analysis, Creative Writing, and Theology. I have been a contributor to various literary magazines, both for written work as well as some photography and am a member of Phi Sigma Tau, a national philosophy honor society.  During my time at UST I was both a field player and goalkeeper for the Fighting Celts Men’s Soccer team and served as the Club President my senior year. I also served as Head Coach for Boys Soccer at Ridge Point from 2010 to 2015 and was fortunate enough to help lead the players to 3 consecutive District Championships.
