History:
I was born in Brooklyn New York. I grew up playing Basketball in Southern California. I've played organized Basketball every year since I was 3 years old. I moved to Sacramento in the fall of 2002. I continued to play Basketball in Sacramento - but had to earn my Sport Cred all over again. In 7th grade I accomplished this by beating out close to 100 kids for a spot on the team. The 7th grade team went undefeated and helped to reestablish me as a contender on the court.
I graduated and moved on to play Ball for Elk Grove High School. I worked Hard to earn a starting position on that highly competitive squad.
Elk Grove High has a reputation for producing NBA stars such as Bill Cartwright. I was honored to play for Elk Grove H.S. The School District built a new High School, Pleasant Grove High School ( PGHS ), 2 blocks from my home. I chose to transfer and help start a new Tradition of excellence there.
My football team won it's Division. My Basketball team won 10 out of our 14 league games - with 8 straight wins to close out the season . We played football and basketball against established teams and did very well. The varsity season will be very exciting.
