In his junior year of college at Iowa State he made 26 receptions for 330 yards and six touchdowns.[2] However his senior year was marked with numerous injuries. He only recorded six catches and 47 yards over eight games.

During the 2015 IFAF World Championship in Canton Ohio he was part of the United States team led by Dan Hawkins that won a gold medal in the tournament.[5]
