Here's some random stuff about me: I'm a Social Studies Education major, which basically means I want to teach high school history. I really want to get into coaching high school basketball someday too. I know it's going to be a lot of work, but I love the thought of teaching. I actually came to college thinking about being an elementary school teacher too. So you guessed it...I LOVE little kids, because they don’t hold any punches, they tell you how it is and they are just all around awesome. Anyways, I'm 6'4 and I've been "that tall kid" forever. Basketball has been my girlfriend ever since I can remember, which is sad I know. The only thing I miss about high school is basketball...and that's it. I played on a basketball team from 4th grade up to the beginning of my sophomore year of college here at Ohio Northern. Everyone says I'm a good/nice guy, maybe to a fault. I didn't date in high school and I haven't dated in college, so I've never really had a girlfriend? I'm a Dierks Bentley FANATIC and I'm not afraid to say it. I'm definitely a night owl. I'm definately one of the 5 best singers in the shower of all time haha. Myrtle Beach is my favorite place...mainly because of the sand, the sun, the ocean and oh yes, those Carolina girls. Southern girls and Hispanic/Latin girls get the thumbs up. My youngest brother, Stu, is the funniest person I've ever met and I enjoy the thought that he looks up to me. I'm known for my crazy cornhole talents. I like to think that I have no enemies, but you always have some I guess. I'm pretty laid back when it comes to a lot of things. I've been told I have a nice smile? I believe everything happens for a reason, even if I don't like it. I get made fun of alot for saying that Joe Forte is my favorite college basketball player of all time. People say I'm easy to talk to, I guess because I actually listen? If you’re a good friend to me, then I'll do almost anything for you. When I have alot on my mind I like to shoot hoops for a few hours by myself, even if its 3am, it calms me down. I tell the truth about myself probably too much. I trust people 100% until they prove me wrong. Basically I like to hangout with my friends, go out on the weekends and go to a party here and there, make people smile/laugh, have lazy movie nights at my house, workout, play basketball, hangout with the family, swim, take the family boat out on the lake and go fishing. I'm a passionate fan of North Carolina Tar Heels basketball. I always follow The Ohio State football and basketball teams...I'm all about that O-H..I-O! I love the Browns even though they seem to lose more often then not! Baseball wise, I'm a Cincinnati Reds kind of guy and Barry Larkin is,was,and will always be the best. I love watching the San Antonio Spurs play, basically because I think Tim Duncan is the greatest (next to Michael Jordan of course). Anyways, when I finally do graduate I kind of want to teach around the area, but if that doesn't workout I want to move to South or North Carolina to find a teaching job there. It'll be hard to decide though, because I have TONS of family and friends around here. Who knows, lots of things can change between now and then, but unpredictability is what makes life fun right?
