- Who is your biggest role model and why?
- My biggest role model is my father. Growing up, my father was always the model example of a husband and an exceptional dad.
- How would you describe your game to someone who has never seen you play?
- Physical and a relentless motor with the ability to finesse and play in space.
- What is one thing someone wouldn’t know about you?
- I do photography and videography as a hobby.
