An Atlanta native, I began my football journey at Towers High School located on the east side of Atlanta, Ga. As a two star recruit coming out of high school I earned a scholarship offer to Presbyterian College. In my first year I started at running back and led the Big South conference in rushing with 1,038 rushing yards. At the end of the season I  transferred to Coastal Carolina where I finished out my college career with 3,729 rushing yards and 41 total touchdowns.
