My Bio
 

I am a dedicated Warehouse Operator at Rhino Tool House, where I specialize in repairing tools. Outside of work, I enjoy an active lifestyle, playing sports with a particular passion for basketball. A loyal fan of the Packers, Bucks, and Brewers, I never miss a game.

In my free time, I love listening to music, with Drake, SZA, Lil Tecca, and Lil Uzi Vert among my favorite artists. I’m also an avid gamer, often found playing FIFA, NCAA College Football 25, and Call of Duty.

Currently, I am pursuing a degree in Criminal Justice at Bryant and Stratton College, committed to advancing my education and career. I live with my girlfriend and our beloved dog, Rex, a Pyrenees/Cane Corso mix, making for a happy and fulfilling home life.
