Basketball & Player Development

Basketball is my primary interest and the foundation of my work in sports media. I am especially interested in studying player performance through game film and understanding how small improvements can help athletes reach higher levels of competition.

This interest directly connects to my work with Next Level Film Room, where I focus on film breakdown and player development analysis.


Sports Media & Digital Content

I am highly interested in how digital media continues to shape the sports industry, particularly how athletes use video content and social media to build exposure and opportunities. Research on NIL and athlete branding shows how digital media now plays a major role in helping athletes build their personal brands and career opportunities:

Sports Interests

Soccer has always been a favorite hobby of mine, I captured this moment at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland where AC Milan faced Leeds United (August 9, 2025).

In addition to basketball, I also enjoy following other sports such as soccer and professional sports leagues. Studying different sports helps broaden my understanding of athletic performance, strategy, and media coverage within the sports industry.


Fitness & Performance

Another passion of mine is the gym and overall fitness. Always working to stay sharp.

Maintaining physical fitness is an important part of my routine. Strength training and conditioning help reinforce discipline and consistency, which also translate into my academic and professional work.


Professional Growth

I am continuously interested in developing skills related to sports media and basketball videography. I actively look for ways to improve my video editing, analysis, and content creation abilities to prepare for future opportunities in the sports industry.
