Alumnus Profile
Before the Covid era, I volunteered with the Lion’s Club Int’l at the University of Richmond.
I’m an epileptic, and it has been adventure to overcome;
as of February, I have been 1 year seizure free.
My left femur was shattered with some other bones in a car incident in 2012, and I have since rehabilitated well so that I could still participate in rugby and continue an athletic lifestyle. I continue to fight other medial conditions.
With all the humility I can muster, I played the handheld Pokémon games competitively.
I formerly competed in regional in Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG tournaments, and
Magic: the Gathering TCG tournaments.
Some of my other gaming hobbies are on PC.
All the photos on this site were taken by me on one adventure or another.
