Favorite thing about Baylor: Homecoming is my favorite tradition at Baylor. The bonfire pep rally, Pigskin, the parade, followed up with a football game on the Brazos makes for the perfect weekend.
Favorite place in Waco: Shorty’s Pizza Shack, love getting pizza pillows. And McLane Stadium on game days.
What inspires me: My friends are always striving to better themselves and each other. My wife is encouraging and pushes me to be better every day.
Favorite hobbies: I enjoy getting out into nature, especially during dove and whitetail season. I like to learn about and work on cars. I also like to play Xbox with my friends.
Fun facts about me: I’ve been to 37 states and I’ve hiked to the tallest points in Tennessee, North Carolina, Arkansas, and Colorado.
My advice to you: Remember to stop and take a moment to take in everything around you, whether you’re studying late or meeting with your friends between classes. This time goes fast and it is easy to get caught up in it all and miss out on the little things.
