Give us an introduction about yourself. Where are you from, what is your major, and what do you write for us?
I am from Houston, Texas and I am a journalism major at the University of Missouri. I am going to be writing about all things baseball, ranging from Missouri/SEC to MLB content. I will be always tracking all baseball news, but am open to writing about other topics as well.

- What got you into sports journalism?
I started doing sports writing when I learned just how much of a passion I had for it. I had always been into reading about sports. When I first got into doing the writing and own research myself, as well as getting to talk about the things that I wanted to talk about, I realized that it was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. - What is your favorite sport and why?
My favorite sport is baseball. I grew up around people who loved it. I just fell in love with it myself from a very young age, even playing it as well. I would always go to baseball games with my family at home, and it would bring us all closer together as my dad and I would always talk about baseball. - What sports moment resonates with you the most?
The sports moment that resonates with me the most is a tie between the last out of the 2017 World Series and the Dez Bryant no catch. 2017 was a very crazy year in my life because it was when my house flooded from a hurricane. Even though I was living in an apartment, I watched something I never thought I would see in my life. The other one, we don’t need to talk about… - Who are your top five favorite artists?
I am a very big music listener. According to Spotify, I spent over 200,000 minutes last year listening to music, so I have a weird taste. In no order, my top five would probably be: Kanye West, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Wu-Tang Clan, and Gorillaz. - What would be your idea of a dream job?
My dream job would be to do what Ken Rosenthal does. I want to be the head beat reporter/writer for the MLB. I would work for a major news outlet, but I would be employed by the MLB to report on breaking news around the league. - Name the best place you’ve ever traveled to.
The best place I have ever traveled to is Japan. I had family who was in the military and they were stationed in Okinawa, so I got the privilege of visiting them with my family.
