Born and raised northwest of Chicago, I was an all-state standout at Prospect High School in Mount Prospect, IL. During my senior year, I would earn state runner-up honors in the 110m hurdles and bring home the state championship in the 300m hurdles. After high school, I took my talents to the Illini at the University of Illinois. While majoring in Anthropology and minoring in Informatics, I set the University record for the 400mH (48.42), earned 10 All-American honors, and finish on the podium four times at the NCAA Championships. Running on the pro circuit, I have continued to maximize my potential on the track. In 2018, I was the first athlete since 1941 to quality for the USA Championships in both the 100mH and 400mH, in 2019, finished 5th in the 400mH at the Diamond League finals, and earned a 400mH gold medal in a Team USA kit at the USA vs Europe Match, finishing the year ranked 9th in the world. In 2021, I finished 3rd at the US Olympic Trials and represented Team USA at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics in the 400-meter hurdles where I finished 12th overall.

I have worked with the Illinois Human Performance Project as a guest speaker to help high school student leaders learn about how to optimize their leadership skills and become leaders of society by sharing my personal take on What is Success?" I also holds a Masters in Education Policy, Organization, & Leadership from the University of Illinois, and aspires to become a mentor, and a leader that can help inspire change in the world.
