Overcoming adversity is what defines character, what was the hardest moment in your life to overcome? 

One of the hardest moments in my life that made me the person I am now. Was the battle to get my first chance on the football field and play. As a quarterback if you not the 1 your normally not going to be able to play. In my third year of college as back up I was able to work my way on to the field and be a weapon and key factor to Sacred Heart University conference championship. What that journey taught me is that no matter what the assignment is if you are willing to work hard enough the outcomes you desire will come to fruition.

These are all three people I can learn from to help me succeed in the career paths I want to go in. Tom Brady being the best winner at the quarterback position , Lamar being the most versatile quarterback ever, and Elon Musk being one of the richest people in the world right now with multiple businesses. These being all things I have set out for myself. 

What is your biggest weakness? 

I could say my biggest weakness could be working too much and not resting as much as necessary. But I’m my opinion it’s not a bad trait.
