Bound by Hoops 2026

Basketball is the foundation of who I am. I played through college, and the game taught me discipline, the value of hard work, leadership, humility, and real world skills I still rely on every day. As a minority raised in a single parent household, the structure, mentorship, and purpose I found through basketball were invaluable, and I would not be where I am today without it.

I have also had the chance to coach, and I have seen firsthand how the game can shape confidence, character, and direction. Coaching is one way to give back, but it is not the only way. Events like Bound By Hoops are another meaningful way to turn the sport that gave me so much into support for kids and families who need it most.

This year I am playing to support Band of Parents and their mission to fund research and clinical trials for childhood cancer. If you are able, I would be grateful for a donation or for you to share this page. Thank you for supporting me and this cause.
