Troy University has been a tremendous blessing in my life. After playing two seasons at Iowa Western Community College, Troy offered me a scholarship to continue my football career. The last two football seasons yielded me opportunities that I could only dream of, playing in ACC, Big Ten, and SEC stadiums filled with 80,000+ screaming fans (NC State, Wisconsin, Georgia, Miss St.).
Upon graduation and out of eligibility, I applied and was fortunate enough to receive a graduate assistant (GA) position in the Troy Athletic Ticket Office. This GA position allowed me to pursue my graduate degree in Sport and Fitness Management while gaining valuable work experience. I am excited for the upcoming football season and optimistic about the chances of going to a bowl game!
My long term goal is to become an athletics director at the Division I level. I would love to work in development or ticketing after completing my Master’s degree.
“The world step aside, to let any man pass, if he knows where he is going.”
Go Trojans!
