Although things outside of the game kept him from really focusing and locking in which hurt his recruitment he was still able to make it to Howard Payne where he played for a year and then transferred to Grambling State University! Upon graduation he was able to compete and get the opportunity to play pro in Mexico and from there he was able to go play in Barcelona, Madrid, Germany, Iceland and Armenia! Developing a following on social media his journey of training started as just helping local kids out in the city who messaged him about working out!
