What subject do you plan to major in?
History right now, but still open to others.

 
Do you have any future aspirations?
Hopefully make a career in the military. I hope to stay in the service for a long while.

 
What other interests do you have?
I’ve played the drums for 10 years and I enjoy creating music, its kind of my hobby. I love to play golf, and hang out with friends.

 
What will you miss most about Boerne?
Of course I will miss all of my friends and Boerne Champion H.S, but also the small town atmosphere that I grew up in. And, Dr. Pepper, they don’t sell it in Maryland.

Charlie Day (alive) and John Wayne (dead). I would ask John Wayne for a hug. And Charlie Day if I could be in an episode of his show Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

 
Favorite quote?
“I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle – victorious.”
