What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2027 NFL Draft?

I’m reliable. I show up every day to be the best version of myself for the team. I understand the business, and I believe I can thrive in it. I know ball, I see things open before they open, I have a great feel for body positioning, I thrive in competition and clutch moments, and above everything else I know anything is possible.

Tell me about a time you faced adversity and how you responded?

I faced adversity in September of 2025 at California University when I tore my pec in practice. I was a preferred walk on who earned a starting spot on special teams. I was working my way into the offensive lineup but the injury resulted in a setback. I knew I was running out of time to earn a starting role on offense because of my remaining eligibility. So I made the difficult decision to leave Cal and look for other opportunities so that I could get film of my on field production. I attended a Sacramento State camp when the portal was opening. That brought me a connection to Central Washington and an opportunity that has changed my life. CWU is the best place I could be at and I believe I did as much as I could to prepare for this moment and that it was all meant to be.

What are your hobbies outside of football?

My hobbies are spending quality time with family and friends and creating. I like to write, make music, learn, make videos, even clean.

What role do you see yourself playing at the next level?

I see myself as an outside receiver who can also play in the slot. With my size and speed l, I can create separation but also play above the rim. I also know that I need to play special teams to get on the field at the next level. I love to block and do whatever it takes to help the team succeed.

If you could donate to one cause where would it be?

If I could donate to one cause it would be world hunger.

How do you handle coaching, especially criticism or being corrected repeatedly?

I handle coaching, criticism, and being corrected repeatedly by looking into my coaches eyes with good body language saying yes coach and doing the best I can to make sure the same mistake isn’t made twice. I see coaching as an opportunity to grow.

Who is the most underrated teammate at your school?

The most underrated teammate at my school is Caleb Christensen.

If you could have dinner with three people, dead or alive, who would it be and why did you choose them?

If I could have dinner with three people dead or alive, I would ask for my Mom, Dad, and a brother. These are people who know me, love me, and who I want to continue to make memories with.

If you were benched tomorrow, what would be the most likely reason?

If I was benched tomorrow the most likely reason would be because my coach believes there is someone who can do my job better then I am doing it.

Walk me through your typical pre-game routine?

I’m not superstitious so every game isn’t the same but I do my best to keep it consistent. What stays consistent is my pre game before I get dressed. I do fast twitch exercises in the training room before I get ready with the guys. When I walk out of the tunnel I like to stay in the back because I get to see everyone who’s going into battle with me. Once I get on the field, I get in the end zone on my knees and embrace the moment. I use this time to fill myself with gratitude and remind myself that there is no pressure.

What is your favorite snack food?

My favorite food is my Abuela’s tamales. I like to eat it with sour cream, lettuce, and salsa.

What scheme do you feel you fit the best in?

I can thrive in any scheme. I’m a 6’3 215lb wide receiver who can run to get open, who can make aggressive catches, who can block safeties and corners, and mentally I can adjust to what my coaches want.

What is your degree in?

I have my Associates degree in Arts and Humanities, I have my Bachelors degree in American Studies with a focus in Media and Film, and right now I am working towards an accounting certificate.

What would be the first thing you buy with your first NFL check?

First thing I would buy with my NFL check would be a nice dinner for me and my loved ones.

Describe a time in a game where you feel you made a mistake, and explain how you bounced back?

Game 1 versus Cal Poly on ESPN. I fumbled before the half during a 2 minute drill. Knowing the importance of this game for my team and myself I was sick to my stomach that I had did something this bad, especially in a situation we always practice. With the help of my teammates and coaches I found a way to get over it and make the second half better than the first half. I made some big time blocks and catches one that I thought should have tied us the game but the refs called out of bounds. The weeks following this game I have been working on my ball security. Anytime we are in a special teams period that I’m not on, I go to the side of the field and do drills that the running backs do which has helped me run the ball better. I have broken more tackles this season, than I have in my whole career and I believe that fumble had a big impact.

Name three songs, we can expect on your playlist?
