Iβve always been passionate about storytelling. I love hearing stories, capturing stories, telling stories, & sharing stories. Above all else, I love living out Godβs unique story for my life. As a college athlete, I was passionate about the basketball story God was writing for me. After transferring colleges, I had a 5th year to play basketball. It was in that 5th year that I started dreaming about continuing to play professional basketball after college. I played my last game of college basketball in March 2018. I got an agent, continued to work on my game & stayed hopeful that my dreams of playing professional basketball would come true. Most players get the call to move overseas over the summer.
August rolls around and I still haven't received a call. The next 3 months of waiting were the hardest 3 months of my life. I was at my lowest point when I heard a sermon about unsubscribing from darkness. It was this same sermon that sparked a light in me like no other. That is when my life motto: Choose Joy, Chase Joy, Believe Joy was born.
A week later, I got the call to move to Germany. December 2018, I fearlessly moved to Germany and took an 11 day solo trip that would change my life forever.
My Story
That trip opened the door to travel blogging which over the years has molded into authentically sharing my life & adventures online in hopes to inspire others to live a life they are excited about. I have built a brand on joy, authenticity & not just dreaming big but taking the action to chase down those God sized dreams in your heart. Since playing ball in Germany, I went on to play in Australia and Ireland. In 2020, I split my brand into what is now known as Joyfueled Social along with my own platform of Content Creating. Much like everyone else, the pandemic changed a lot for me. During the majority of the pandemic I was living in Australia where I faced many struggles. It was in these hard times, that I relied on my faith to keep going and keep believing joy. My faith is my foundation and what has guided my professional basketball career, my business and my life.
Over the last 4 years, Iβve built a personal brand, business, basketball career & this βyou can do it tooβ lifestyle through my own experiences. I now feel called to continue to help inspire others to live a life they are excited about. Whether it's through my social media services, my faith based community or just simply sharing my story, I am ready to help you live the life youβve always wanted, fueled by joy.

To be able to share the game I love with so many young ballers sets my heart on fire. I am so passionate about what I do and I love getting to share the game that has given me so much with others. God is so good and ALL the glory to Him. I am where I am today because of His grace, love and plan for my life. Hereβs to another day of pursuing Godβs calling on my life trying to encourage, inspire and love others through this game!
