SURPRISING FACT
High school basketball coach asked me to try out because of my height. Ending up surprising him because I was actually good at basketball. Started every game at center and had 220 rebounds, just shy of beating the school record of 230 for most rebounds in a season.
MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT LMU...
It's a small school and it's surrounded by beautiful mountains.
IF I COULD HAVE DINNER WITH THREE PEOPLE, DEAD OR ALIVE...
1. Gerard Butler because he's handsome, Scottish, and he's my favorite actor.
2. Josh Turner because I love his deep southern accent, great country singer, and he's very good looking.
3. Jase Robertson from Duck Dynasty because he's hilarious, seems like an interesting person to talk to, and If I had the chance, I'd love to go fishing and hunting with him.
