Tell me the impact that DeWayne Brown has had on in you in your football training at Evolve?

DB: D Brown is just always trying to find a way to look out or help someone out. I know he put out a few calls for me. As far as working out, D Brown tries to push everyone and bring the most out of you.

Are you excited to play in the NFBD All Star game on June 6?

DB: I am extremely excited. I really feel like this is a statement game, especially for a competitive spirit like mine. It's time to turn non-believers into believers.

During your time on Westinghouse's football team, was there a specific team that you wished your team would have played?

DB: Probably Woodland Hills, it’s always talked about amongst people on social media. I have a few buddies that go there that need a "city wake up call".

Ok, where is your go-to place to eat?

DB: Probably TGI Friday's, not because there food is the best, but mainly because I used to go there all the time with my pops, sister and brother. It’s more like a family thing.

If you could meet anyone in the world, who would it be?

What was one of your favorite classes that you took while at Westinghouse?

DB: Civics

What do you think you will miss the most about high school?

DB: People would probably be surprised to know that I can actually sing a little bit, and that I can also cook.
