How I came to join Revolver:
Cal States 2.0 went well and the endorsement of Daryl Nounnan didn’t hurt. Plus the shameless politicking by Russell really helped.

Favorite game or tournament moment outside of Revolver:
Coming back from a 5-0 hole to beat SDSU for the college Southwest Regional finals in 2011.
Favorite Ultimate player(s) in formative years:
Daryl Nounnan — His intensity and intelligence met my ceaseless questions with patient answers.

Pre-game ritual:
Try to stretch as much as possible, run a bit, hydrate, and enter the zen state.
