- I was an achieved basketball player in high school, being placed in the ND WDA All-Conference team, the ND Lions All-Star Class A team, Quarterback Club, as well as setting a school record for 3-pointers in a game with eleven. I was offered to play college basketball at the University of Jamestown.

I was awarded with the Saint Award my senior year, which is the most prestigious award for athletes at Saint Mary's High School.
- I thoroughly enjoy drawing. I have made it into both Sports Illustrated and Highlights Magazine for some of my artwork. Portraits, landscapes, and animals are my favorite things to illustrate.
- I have landscaped for six years, building numerous projects including patios, retaining walls, and fire pits. I also worked at Scheels as a salesmen for a year, learning the importance of customer service and assisting customers with making purchases that best suited their individual needs. I currently am a waiter at the Bistró in Bismarck.
