So I moved from New Jersey when I was 10 from a town called Maplewood into an even smaller town in Israel called Mitzpe Netofa. I had always dreamed of playing football because I knew my grandpa had success at Alfred Universty at the left tackle position and he entered their Hall of Fame. Well i was kind of a mess during my freshman and sophomore years till the middle of my sophomore year where I learned I could play football but would have to commute 2 and a half hours just to get to practice. Well I’ve never missed a practice. After my first half year of football I tryed out for the National team and the head coach saw promise in me so he signed me up. My first full year of football I had alot of succes earning me a spot on the first team defense of the country. By then I had moved schools to be closer to the team and home( my freshman and sophomore years i was in a boarding school) after my junior season my team that was based i Haifa fell apart and I moved to play In Carmiel . I took the sat in December earning a decent score and was ready to tear it up my senior year.I was so commited to making my senior season a success I would wake up at 4 30a.m to run 5 miles of hills because I had learned that’s what Jerry Rice would do and I want to be great just like him. I have plans on coming to America during the ISN I Wanna Sign Tour and I hope to gain more exposure and maybe me some college coaches.
